Somewhat more upbeat in terms of stories of childhood is Breaking A Monster, a documentary which follows a group of young metal musicians who went from YouTube sensations (having been filmed busking in New York) to playing at one of the biggest venues in the US.

The rigours of the music industry begin to take their toll on the 13-year-olds that make up Unlocking The Truth; watching the kids deal with them is kind of inspirational.
