Thanks for the suggestion. I am curious as to how the film was made.
The shot of the islanders boarding the boat with their animals keeps coming back to me.
It is one of the few times I have seen a film that I did not want to talk about immediately when it was over.
Hereafter, in a better world than this,
I shall desire more love and knowledge of you
