This movie unexpectedly captivated me. I was mesmerized because it was so different from our modern, every day lives. It was calm, and fascinating to see how some with so little live, yet seem to have more purpose and fulfillment than those of us with too much. I watched this movie on an international flight. It isn't a movie I would have normally chosen, but I found myself drawn into the lives of the people. I am glad I saw this movie.
