So, 'Please Pray for West Papua' is this heavy-hitting documentary that digs into the painful history of colonization and its aftermath. It juxtaposes the struggles of indigenous peoples, like those in West Papua, with the experiences of Native Americans who faced similar traumas in residential schools. The tone is raw and earnest, really pulling you into that world. Pacing feels deliberate, allowing you to absorb the gravity of their stories. What’s striking is the way it captures the resilience of these communities amidst such adversity—it's not just about loss, but also about survival and resistance. The visuals are stark, almost haunting at times, which just adds to the atmosphere. Quite an impactful piece for anyone interested in these themes.
