| Trivia | The opening theme is an original contribution by Montreal band Godspeed You! Black Emperor, and other music and sounds were provided by band member David Bryant and A Silver Mt. Zion, a side project featuring multiple Godspeed members. Director Jem Cohen has continued to collaborate with Godspeed, most recently providing some of the film footage used as projections in the band's live shows on their 2022 tour. See more » |

You see them and almost feel like crying, because there is one that seems so special for you. See more » |
