Most of the film consists of.... what we called in the old days... "home movie" footage.

Amy was videod copiously from the moment she left the womb, it would appear. Her adulthood and even her gradual collapse is recorded informally by.... well, by whatever amateur was standing nearby and holding the phone at the time. Which evidently was almost ALL the time.

All that documentation.... yet still very much a mystery.

To me, anyway.
