02/27/2021 I couldn't stop crying. Watching indigenous people trying to hold onto their relevance in their own country is heartbreaking. So to make themselves heard means changing their core in some way so those who rule over them can understand them, even if that means making a traditional song ‘accessible'. I couldn't stop crying and I'm so glad this documentary was made. Thanks Taika, you're a conduit. See more Read all reviews
