Where and when did you see it? Your aqusations are pretty lofty and strong? Are you a filmaker yourself? Do you know how long it takes to make a film? I am just shocked because I saw a compeltly different film. An emotional powerful journey that broke the stereotypes of Africa. AALso did you ever ask teh film am kers about their approach or if tehy "scrippted the film"? THey were very open at the Q and A I was about explaing how they filmed differents cenes and how teh children opened up to the camera. Anywya I completely disagree with yoru critism and just think that you woudl rather see teh same old africa films shown to the us. is it too much to ask that a film shot in a war zone about children look spoectacular and be great? What is so wrongwith that? Anyway if you have not spoken to the filmakers then I would suggest you contact them before making such incredibly insensative accusations.
