What next? In the first film, the colours were completely washed out, so much so that the blood appeared to be orange. There is a slight improvement in this one - the blood is at least blood-coloured and the rest of the film looked more or less the correct colour.

Some beautiful churches were filmed as well. Some other natural ...
Advantages: Gripping, Superb acting, makes you think about life differently, eye opening Disadvantages: It is a very disturbing film and might be too disturbing for some

In Africa life seems to have no cost and there seems to be no consequences for killers. There has been a lot covered in the past and many misdeeds gone unnoticed. Any money that is made legitimately is usually shared out among the richer nations and men who have power in Africa usually abuse it. Any money that is given to Africa usually gets used by the people in power.
