This is a MUST see!!

This is an incredible story about a tragic point in history and the collaboration of Bill Carter and U2 to force the world to look and see what was happening to Sarajevo. A MUST see!! I was a teenager when this happened, and I only followed it from a periphery at that age. See all of this incredible archival footage brought it all back. It was also incredible that there was so much footage on the people followed through the documentary. It makes the story telling much more real. I left this movie with the renewed belief that 1 person (Bill Carter) CAN move mountains. The director threaded the story perfectly and the interview settings are stunning!

"Kiss the Future" is not just a documentary; it's a profound meditation on the enduring power of art to heal and inspire even in the darkest of times.In an era flooded with documentaries, "Kiss the Future" stands out as a magnum opus that demands attention.
