COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Community at Its Best! submitted by ingahuff on May 28, 2011, 5:30pm This is a story about community, passion and fierce loyalty. Charming, quirky, and a little bit heartbreaking at times, but worth 55 minutes of your time. If you like documentaries, this is a not to miss film.

Great doc submitted by manz on March 10, 2012, 2:18pm I agree with what ingahuff wrote. A great doc for your viewing pleasure.
