Thanks for getting me interested - I really liked this one as well. I think it really takes multiple viewings to appreciate this one; luckily it is short enough that this isn't a bother. I think it was Nick in your earlier post that recommended listening to the director's commentary - now I do too. Some parts were illuminating, even though I think a lot of it was tongue-in-cheek... I'm going to have to think about this one for a bit - you wrote: <i>In a nutshell, the story is simple; Nyaako rescues part of his sister Nyatta’s soul from Death and must embark on a quest to restore her fully.</i>. I didn't see it this way at all. Hmmm, maybe I'll write something after I've thought about it a bit. (BTW, Nyatta is the bro and Nyako is the sis... not that you'd know, since there isn't any dialog in the film...) I finally watched it today.
