A very fun, vibrant, exciting, and moving tale of escaped slaves setting up their own community. Like all of Diegues films, it's not meant to be precisely accurate - and if you're hoping for a Hollywood budget and historical verisimilitude you won't find them here. What you will find is a passion for film making, and a passion for a great story, and some joyful, exuberant acting. The use of music is excellent, the sounds chosen to evoke the present. The use of color is wonderful, like watching a Mardi gras parade in Rio. The camera work is fluid and the framing busy yet focused. The sort of film you want to watch immediately again to catch all the action in the frame you didn't see the first go through.
