As a guitarist, this is very entertaining. As a documentary, it's not terribly interesting. There's no particular story to the show. It's mostly a collection of guitarists talking about how Django's music has inspired them.
I've listened to a lot of Django, but I didn't recognize anything that was played, except for Minor Swing, which was used at the very end. Every single guitarist I saw in this was amazing. I've had a lot of respect for Django's rhythm players, since they move all over the place at a remarkable speed, even if they're just chugging away.
