This documentary, though not widely distributed, has generated niche interest among collectors who appreciate cultural films. Its limited release means that physical copies, especially in good condition, might become harder to find over time. There’s a certain appeal in owning a piece that not only sheds light on Yoruba traditions but also showcases the intimate lives of its practitioners.
