Am the fanatic of world movies, and this ranks first in my favourites just because of its narration.
This is the movie that juxtaposes the life of the so-called civilized and uncivilized people. The story revolves around the uncivilized Bushmen, Mr.Xi who lives happily in the Kalahari Desert until he gets one cool-drink bottle. He thought that the bottle was the gift from god. To him and the other Kalahari’s the bottle seems to be the most important thing in their life.
They, used to play with that bottle, started using it as an implement. But after sometimes, an unknown phenomena to them until-jealousy occurs, since everyone started possessing the bottle as their own.
So Xi thought it was an evil, and he wanted to throw it at the world’s end. So he started his journey towards the edge of the world. For the first time he sees the civilized people and the huge automobiles. Everything seems to be indifferent to him.
On the way he meets one researcher-Andrew and his girl friend-Kate and made friendship with them. Xi got arrested for killing the goat. Andrew thought that Xi would die in jail since he never seen walls in his life. So Andrew bailed him.
Meanwhile Xi saves Kate and other school children from a terrorist along with Andrew. Finally xi throws the bottle in to the coast.
Though the movie started like the documentary, at the end it symbolically tells that desire is the only cause of all problems.
