This is one of those rare movies that isn't like any other you've ever seen before, it is surprising to see a something of this caliber in the cinema today. The film is almost an epic, but not in the classical sense of Spartacus or Lawrence of Arabia, but rather an epic of human journey. The story in and of itself is riveting, but this is enhanced by the fact that most of the filming was done with small digital cameras. You feel just as if you were traveling along with them, you see what they see, you can feel what they felt with more honesty that most films can deliver. The film also provides you with a unique inside view of the cultures and ways of the middle east area of Asia. Its amazing to see how when the journey takes place, Enyat is living in nothing more than squalor but as he travels westward, western society slowly creeps in to the scenery. I must say that because of this film I will never look at immigrants the same again, and have a new found respect for them.
