I saw the film with a bunch of Current folks and it was great. Go see it this weekend if you can.
Added bonus: There’s actually some rise of the image fall of the word mojo happening with this movie; both it and the slide show it’s based on use images, moving and still, to communicate complicated ideas in an extraordinarily efficient way.
