shocked by the death of prostitute, one of the best documentaries I saw.

after watching this, I felt like I could easily take on the garbage left on my porch. I failed terribly.

I contacted Richard Mgaba after having seen the film, the Tanzanian journalist who is interviewed in the film. He told me he was prosecuted and thrown into jail after the release of the film. Today he works on two different projects about africa, one on war and the other on drug trafficing. He is also writing a book about Africa. In the film I was impressed with how sharp he was. He gives me hope.

Ignorance is bliss. I find myself moving from feeling distant, close and back again to this cliche. Sometimes I can look back on life and see 'how far I've come' to be aware, involved, critical, and most importantly authentic. In these times I am distant from the bliss. Last night, watching 'Darwin's Nightmare' I found myself uncomfortably close to that bliss. This is our world, our time.

One of the strangest and most affecting films I've ever seen. It begins with a skirmish between an air traffic controller and a bee buzzing madly against the windows of a control tower somewhere in Tanzania, and somehow winds up connecting the seediest mechanisms of globalism. Sauper has said his intention was "to make a film about the logic of our time. And it's a very weird logic." An important film....

John Malsbary, you literally stole the words from my mouth. This documentary still haunts me. I, too, have seen it once - in a festival three or four years ago. It's a must-see, and a one time only must-see. We get such a distinct view on the people and conditions of Tanzania, it hurts to watch. Also, for any amateur who finds documentaries boring, here you go.
