This man is the real deal. He's articulate and on point without pretention. He's the kind of artist that reminds us why we love film experiences in the first place. We can learn, we can be enlightened, we can change.

"This is a movie about knowledge"
For me the scene where the compass is lost says it all. This movie made me feel so sad that we will never get the chance to learn from the many cultures that have faded because of the world domination by Europe

I thought that that scene was quite poignant too. I understand it in terms of language. But then I think about all those languages and cultures which have been lost without the involvement of Europeans too.
Currently, I'm battling with questions to whether we must play any role in safeguarding cultures or must we let them die out (like thousands of cultures before us). And then about development - how can we demand peoples to 'stay as they are' when I, myself, have adopted a western mode of living, speaking and thinking.
