Remember Batkid? The leukemia patient who made the entire world cry oceans of tears and let out deafening awwwwws after his Make-a-Wish project turned San Francisco into Gotham for a day? His story was turned into a documentary called Batkid Begins, and its trailer has just been released.

The film has screened at plenty of film festivals and has been well-received, probably because all the critics were in need of a nice long public cry. The Hollywood Reporter called it “humorous and touching,” and Consequence of Sound said it’s “so overwhelmingly positive [that] it’s like swallowing a little yellow happy pill with the Bat signal on it.”
