Safari

03:15:00

There is a strange belief among human beings that we, as species, are better than animals. We think that our inferiors have no feelings, attachment, and emotions whatsoever. They can be used for milk, meat, skin, fur, and jewelry, bred in disastrous conditions to multiply the profit. Some people like killing on their own terms, be the trigger to the bullet. They want to hunt and put down what belongs to the wilderness. And they don't see anything bad in their actions, quite the reverse, they praise their entertainment and see themselves as heroes. With a realistic eye and a dose of cynicism, Ulrich Seidl's sin Safari. Doesn't killing in the blink of an eye with entertainment and collective reasons in mind put us a little bit lower on the scale of human development? Food for thought. Enjoy.

On the nature of pictures

*Every Google image belongs to someone and this someone should be noted. However, if pictures are scenes from the film they most probably belong to owners of the film/producers. I use saved screens of the Google compilation of pictures, thus the pictures of pictures, which I take, cut and edit myself (as a derivative use). They are used for reviewing purposes (fair use), not for diminishing the films' profits by stealing what rightly belongs to them. Copyright is tricky, let's get used to it.
