The Sacred Fire of Himba (2010)

The Radar read

A quieter title still finding its audience, though the rating rests on a thin sample, so treat it as provisional.

Synopsis

This is the third film of the documentary project "Out of Time". The Himba is perhaps one of the most distinctive tribes in Africa. They exist in their own world, the passage of time has no control over them, even the pressure of Western civilization, which swept the entire African continent in the 20th century, seemed to have bypassed them, leaving their traditions untouched.

Radar blends quality, momentum and freshness into one “what to watch now” number — so a great older film can sit lower than a rising new release. The Quality signal above is the time-neutral rating, which is why an acclaimed classic keeps a high quality score even when its Radar number is lower. Radar outputs are editorial algorithmic recommendations, not objective facts, and may change as signals update. A Radar score is not the same as a TMDB, IMDb or critic rating.
