Standing Strong

Maine South
Documentary

Entry Description

A documentary chronicling the 12-year struggle Sam Tinaglia has spent battling cancer.

Judge 1

Positives: The interviews with Sam were strong. Very heart-tugging and emotional. And the music did a nice job of establishing and emotion, but not being too heavy-handed with it.

Improvements: I would've liked to see a little better variety of camera angles, cutaways etc. in the telling of the story, to add interest and texture to the filming. And I would've liked to see a little bit more interview footage of the people supporting Sam -- friends, family, doctors, etc.
