    Very well done, informative and a little disturbing

    This movie is well worth watching. It was screened at the German Film Festival in Dublin this December 2009 and stands out due to the subject matter, which is not just of German-interest but possibly has large implications for similar cult communities from many other countries.

    There is nothing graphic visually in it that is disturbing, but the interviews and matter-of-fact discussions about Villa Baviera and the goings on are surprising, as is the normality of the people who lived there, and who still live there.

    It's a very non-dramatic and very straight-talking documentary with the original inhabitants and their stories and backgrounds.
