“Superheroes – A Documentary” by HBO

This documentary is not about fictional characters taken from comic books. HBO presents us in their newest production some of the real life (super)heroes who are fighting crime in America:

»They patrol the dark and dangerous streets, seeking out criminals, evildoers and villains, veiled in secret identities… They call themselves Real-Life Superheroes, and they are out to save humanity.

Superheroes is a journey inside the world of real-life caped crusaders. From all over America, these everyday citizens don masks, homemade costumes and elaborate utility belts in an attempt to bring justice to evildoers everywhere.«
