SPACER Z ANIOLAMI (WALK WITH ANGELS)

Watchable. The beginning of this documentary is chaotic. It takes time to assemble the events in your mind since the film isn't helpful. Instead of an investigation - which finds a simple explanation, not unlike cases in Europe, you're taken for a walk through Africa: magic rituals, poverty, dumpsters where recycling is carried out both by working people and by scavenging birds. No conclusion to the search for the missing kid. Only a skillful cut combines the story into one long walk so that it eventually makes sense. The whole thing may be of interest to those who have no clue about Africa.
