In the two years documentary filmmakers shadowed former Congresswoman Gabby Giffords, the most jarring moment for them was in the kitchen of her Tucson, Arizona, home.
As cameras were rolling, she and her husband, Sen. Mark Kelly, nonchalantly opened the freezer. Kelly grabbed a plastic container and revealed it holds the piece of Giffords' skull that had to be removed after she was shot.
"This stays in here next to the empanadas and the sliced mango," Kelly said.
Giffords' response was "Sera, sera," referencing the song "Que sera, sera" or "What will be, will be."

PO1 William "Chip" Nagel I hope her husband gets re-elected to the Senate.
..."Giffords often has to remind people that she still has a voice even if speaking doesn’t come easily — whether it’s on gun safety or other issues. She said she genuinely feels the climate is different now but people have to be patient because change is “slow,” and Washington, D.C., is “really slow.”
She plans to refocus on making tougher federal background checks a reality through her Gun Owners for Safety coalition. The bill the Senate approved would only strengthen background checks for buyers age 18 to 20.
If there’s one message she wants viewers to take from the documentary, it’s “fight, fight, fight every day,” Giffords said."
