Won't You Be My Neighbor is an exploration of the life and the legacy of the iconic children's TV host, Fred Rogers. Rogers was a unique presence on television for generations - charming, softly spoken, yet motivated by profound ideals; he was never too scared to talk even about the most controversial topics with kids. He was a truly noble man who tried to create a safe haven for kids and instill a deep understanding of the world into them. However, behind this rock-solid and unbreakable veneer, Fred Rogers hid a vulnerable and self-doubting person.

I Am Not Your Negro is a vision of James Baldwin's unfinished book called Remember This House by the director Raoul Peck. Baldwin's book, of which there were only 30 pages and a manuscript by the time of his death in 1987, was supposed to be a revolutionary look at race in modern America. In it, he was to recall his personal account of the assassinations of his three close friends - Malcolm X, Martin Luther King, and Medgar Evers. A truly heartbreaking reality that did not end way back then but followed us to our days.

Apollo 11 takes a deeper look into the eponymous mission to land on the moon led by commander Neil Armstrong and pilots Collin and Aldrin.

And who doesn't love witnessing historical events?

Summer of Soul (...Or, When The Revolution Could Not Be Televised) centers around the iconic 1969 Harlem Cultural Festival, which celebrated the African-American culture and promoted the case of Black pride and unity. The event, same as the footage of it, has been largely forgotten up until now, and it is really interesting to see this epic event taking place and its attendees commenting on the actual events back then. Summer Of Soul also delivers some never-before-seen performance footage of Stevie Wonder, Sly, The Family Stone, Nina Simone, and many more iconic musicians.

Life Itself talks about the life of the legendary movie critic Roger Ebert. Even if you’re hearing his name for the first time now, there isn't a chance you haven't read at least one of his terrific reviews! Roger's life was an eventful one, and the story here falls from exhilaratingly witty to painful and back again in just a second. His voice became one of the most influential cultural voices, and his battle with cancer symbolically and literally put a new face on the disease. After watching Life Itself, we think that you'll be bound to agree that Roger Ebert was truly a magnificent man.

Amazing Grace is a concert film showing the footage of Aretha Franklin recording her Amazing Grace album with the gospel choir of The New Bethel Baptist Church in Watts, Los Angeles, in 1972. To see the making of Amazing Grace come to life is really an incredible experience - the footage filmed back then didn't record the sound, but with new technologies, it became possible to sync the two together.
