The documentary is a little slow to start but when the reality and the depth of the subject hit you, you don't want to blink and loose a second of the movie.
I loved the images filmed in 8mm, and even if some of the audio sections are clipped and whites over-exposed, the overall aesthetic of the film is captivating,
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Thank you for bringing the attention of the world to such an unknown reality. The documentary is very interesting and it uncovers many interesting details belonging to this "hidden world", by offering a bright vision of its cultural habits, religious traditions and unique situation.
Unfortunately it is also pretty boring, because of a bad editing and a lack of continuity among the different scenes.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

The film was shot and edited beautifully, the subject matter was fascinating and the character choice was perfect. You float in an out of this incredible place in a dream like haze. Hats off to director Engi Wassef.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
