What people are saying
‘Press "THE MOST IMPRESSIVE MATERIAL HERE WOULD MAKE FOR A NAIL-BITING JAMES BOND FILM. Lucy Walker’s artful documentary brings the issue into penetrating focus, making a strong case for renewed global vigilance."‘
Joshua Rothkopf
Time Out New York
‘"EXHILARATING. ODD AS IT MAY SOUND, IT’S A REMARKABLY BEAUTIFUL MOVIE. It has a sense of rhythm, color and humanity and the editing is miraculous." ‘
