Duma

...innehåller tillräckligt med sympati och värme för att erbjuda en mysig stund framför rutan.

Duma is an astonishing film by Carroll Ballard, the director who is fascinated by the relationship between humans, animals and the wilderness.

...everything that transpires in the film evokes a powerful sense of life in irrevocable motion.

The scenery and animal handling already make Duma worth a look. But it's this friendship, reminiscent of Huck Finn's bond with escaped slave Jim, that makes it memorable.

...Duma is all heart and soul, a disarmingly charming throwback to such old-fashioned humans-and-animals adventure tales as Born Free and Ring of Bright Water.
