The film was itself a great reflection of what pilgrimages are composed of to those fellow worshippers. The filmmakers did a good job at capturing the scenes of India however I feel that they could've done a better job at actually getting in depth of specific activities that people participate in and how by doing so was a means of reaching their goal of spirituality. It captures the overall significance of Kumbh Mela and explains the traditional reasons as to why this scared place is flooded with tens of millions of people at a specific time and place nearly every decade.
Organizational religion is the typical standard at least from a western viewpoint but the fact that pilgrimages offers an opportunity to find religious purpose yourself is a whole entirely different experience in itself and which is why it makes this documentary especially profound.
