The Weeping Camel

I was very impressed with this movie we watched in glass. It was the first time I had ever taken a look into a culture didnt then the one we live in. The importance of the camel in these peoples lives is more important then almost any posesion that we own. The indepence they give their children also opened my eyes to a way of raising your children. Also when the boy wanted to ask his parents for a TV I thought it was ironic because today all kids do is sit in front of TV.
