A documentary aimed at starting a nationwide movement against bullying, is getting a lot of buzz and it premiered in Fargo tonight. Controversy over the film "Bully” first started when people complained about its PG-13 rating, saying it should be rated R.

The film follows 5 kids who have to put up with bullying and shows how it affects their families. On Tuesday, the 7 o'clock show at the Fargo Theater will be followed by a community discussion with local leaders, educators and students.

Jonathan Anderson – Watching Bully: “I think it's a good opportunity to get that kind of discussion going because I think kids will pay attention to something like this, put into movie form like this.”

Tonight was the first showing at the Fargo Theater.
