OCTOBER: Blood ties

Exile Room opens the new season with big-hearted “Blood Brother”, the only documentary that requires an entire package of tissues to get through, without ever getting melodramatic. Instead, everyone who has seen it has called it “incisive” (The Hollywood Reporter), “stirring” (The New York Times), “touching” (The Village Voice) and “affecting” (Screen Daily). It’s all of this and more, but you’d better find out for yourselves.
