I'm Not Alone has a timeless message of how people are victims of war, and can communicate with each other on a personal level. Unfortunately the masters of war keep people seperated and use mob mentality to their advantage. As a documentary the filming is what you would expect and the director balances the shots of devastation with cuts of the main character, who also does a fair narration, encouraging people in Iraq and Palestine to talk with their oppressors (also victims) by using music to entice the children into letting him meet their families. Although the message of the film is timeless, the invasion of Lebanan and Gaza by the Israelis (a majority of whom are against their government's treatment of the Palesitinians) has made the film itself obsolete.
