This is probably how documentary features should be in the new millennium. Voice-over in many languages (also German and English, Portuguese, and some languages I don't know at all, well, Arabic probably among them), a post-colonial experience that you don't wanna miss. One of the parts I understood was an African-American woman talking about how she experienced her stay in Sub-Saharan Africa - very interesting. On the visual side of things there is obviously some found footage; very interesting in any case. This film is not like other documentaries who already tell you how to interpret things, there are no common-place elements in this film either (compare "Megacities" also by an Austrian film maker: you get what you expect). Here you're on your own, seeing things you've (probably) never seen before and not quite sure how to interpret things...
