I felt like I was tricked into watching boring private home movies. There is no clear cut subject of the documentary and it was not mostly about the bookstore. Only about 10% was about the bookstore. It felt so biased because it was about the family of the person making the documentary. Then like 60% was her brother's coming out story and 30% of the documentary maker talking about how she was friends with gay people in high school and how cool she was that she was artistic. I was advertised and expecting a piece on the bookstore and the gay culture. This is not what was delivered. A waste of time that leaves you feeling emotionally numb.
