IHRE BEWERTUNG

Italian visual artist Yuri Ancarani's documentary enters the surreal world of wealthy Qatari sheikhs with a passion for amateur falconry. The opulence of this Middle Eastern gas state is on full display as the men race SUVs up and down sand dunes, fly their prized falcons around on private jets, and take their pet cheetahs out for desert spins in their souped-up Ferraris.

Problem

Have some trouble to find this movie. Unfortunately, Google Movies and Amazon Prime do not offer me choice of shopping this movie in my region? Cannot find this movie in Netflix as well? I am wondering why?

hedonistic storytelling

Regardless how I might personally feel about over consumption, hedonism, and the glory of obsessive compulsive spending...that is meaningless self imposed opinion. As a documentary the film is well executed, well-authored and exposes the unconscious pleasures in exotic pets. I wish that had been some history to contextulise the facination with falcons. Needless it is a well produced well told story.

Rich Boys with Expensive Toys

Consider, if you will, a desert gathering of spoiled, rich Frat boys, playing with their extremely expensive cars, dune buggies, Harley choppers, and exotic pets, including hunting Falcons. Oh, and every 20 seconds someone says "God wills it!" I suppose there must be a backstory on the history and culture of Saudi Falconry here, but the filmmaker doesn't bother to explain it. Nice visuals, if you like sand.
