I am not a big fan of documentaries, somehow I generally feel there is enough concreteness in the world and I prefer to be in fantasy for a while when I watch something. I made an exception watching this as I had first seen the feature film describing the life of Sergio, which was released in 2020 on Netflix, and was fascinated with the life and philosophy of this man. I knew I was in for a sad and beautiful ride going in. I found however that the principles, the camaraderie, the passion in Sergio's life exposed in this documentary did sweeten the blow of the end I knew was coming. Of course it is difficult to know a man...even when you actually know him, not to mention after his death and through a video, but that being said they certainly managed to catch the essence of what he was to the people around him. There is a sense of the values his life brought to the forefront and I guess one can only hope we all leave a bit of that behind when we go.
