The Academy-Award team of brothers Robert B. Sherman and Richard M. Sherman wrote the songs "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang," "It's a Small World," "Chim Chim Cher-ee," and "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious"–which were among their collaborations. While their songs were loved, the brothers did not get along, and their rift led to their sons not even knowing that they had family members living nearby. Their sons, Gregory and Jeff, made this documentary that tells the story of Robert and Richard's unique relationship that, despite their estrangement, produced cherished, classic music.
