Touching and inspiring!
This film entertains, teaches and motivates viewers to reflect upon how society is shaped by individual experiences through art and family. Further, it shows the birth of a performing arts movement that most of us have not been aware it existed. Congratulations to all of those who were part of this Dzi cultural movement for paving the way for those who wanted to be free to perform and express their views. Also, the first hand interviews by reputable actors, who were directly influenced by their ideas, gives good historical validation of what really happened. Overall its a great film and should definitely be watched by everyone that enjoys documentaries.
