I follow Jordan Peterson since 2016 with the come-up of Bill C-16 legislature and since then, Dr. Peterson has been constantly attacked by some left-wing media and has been intentionally portrayed as a biggot, homophobic, racist nazi figure. This documentary does not follow that path, and instead dives into his personal life and what it is to be Jordan in the day-to-day. We can feel his anxiety, we can sense that he himself does not yet grasp what is happening to him. I love the heartbreaking sentence "I lost Jordan to the World" from Tammy near the end of the film, I think it reflects well what the author tried to expose. Very well done.
