Incredibly moving and insightful. One of the best docs I’ve seen in years
In a time of incredible political deadlock, The First Step shows what it’s like to find a middle ground, along with the benefits and the consequences of compromise. The film not only gives viewers an inside look into the complexity and messiness of the legislative process, but it also is a moving portrait of Van Jones and his evolution as a social justice advocate.While there have been numerous political documentaries in recent decades, many get caught up in partisan bias. And thats where the First Step succeeds, doing its best to bring the viewer in without forcing a specific perspective, leaving the audience to recognize that nothing is complete and progress is an ever evolving.
Important
Not only is this a very well crafted film, it is one of those films that I consider an important watch for any American voter. The First Step takes us through the “sausage making” in the halls of congress and helps to convey that making change is difficult but worth the struggle. Van Jones is a conflicted protagonist, resolute and compassionate, but carries baggage. This only adds to the film’s main point – we are all flawed but need to move toward progress nonetheless. Well done.
