The movie portrays an important time in the Arabian Desert when fighting factions and tribes finally understand that the oil beneath the hot sand was a literal gold mine. At first they rejected the idea of losing their culture, but as we know their culture endured the lasting effects of finding oil. But this movie is more than that. It is about a deep love, a grasp to keep loyalty, and a saga about honor, tradition and ultimately death. A great movie.
this is a wonderful film of what still plagues the arab world today: modernization of an arab society (to make life better for its impoverished citizens) vs. traditionalists who see modernization as eroding their religious values. great seller & great movie.
You must pay attention. The trees behind the forest.
