The side-car scene had me in stitches!! *spoiler*


I nearly cried laughing at the baby camel in the sidecar!! Then the hilarity of them trying to get the bike started again before the mother camel came up and bit them, then seeing her trot behind them as they rode off!

One of the funniest things I've seen all year, hands down.

This film was one of the most moving and funny films with wonderful acting, definitely in my top ten and makes me want to see more films from around the world.

Never mind half empty - who's stole my freaking glass?!?!

It was a funny scene, but I also found the mother camel's protection of her baby quite moving. The film is full of parallels between humans and other animals (as well as the animal nature of humans), many of which have been forever lost to most of us in the West. Great film.
