A GREAT Movie!
What a little jewel this movie is.

Shame on the US distributors for not picking up this movie, reportedly due to the lack of a “name” US actor in the cast. If anything, it was MORE effective due to the lack of recognizable faces. It made the story the most important thing. And you CARED about these people, because they felt like the real thing, not actors playing roles.

Great cast, beautifully filmed, important story. If you aren’t lucky enough to find it in a theater near you (and you probably won’t) the DVD comes out in, I think, November. Run, don’t walk, to buy it. You will not be disappointed.

A bad movie with a good message is still a bad movie
Young Musa sees his mother, then father die. His young cousin is raped because South African men believe sex with a virgin cures AIDS.

This is a movie that wants to make a good point. It is at times touching, but is almost always downbeat, with an improbable end to make up for the suffering the audience must endure to get there. By the end of the movie, perhaps we have a better appreciation of the problem of AIDS in Africa. But is it accurate? If so, then Africa is already doomed.

Overall the acting in the movie is stilted, and the movement is far too slow, though character development is good. I wanted to see some drumming, but it was never delivered. A bad movie with a good message is still a bad movie.
