"What is remarkable is that this film is based on a true story, and
filmed on the actual locations. These are hard, violent men, risking
their lives to save an animal species. In appearance and behavior, they
could be commandos, insurgents, terrorists. The poachers are no less
desperate, and the film opens with the murder of a patrolman. In a
strange way, the patrol and the poachers feel a bond; they are the only
humans on this high plateau, both drawn there by a fascination for the
antelope, and they share an existence no one else knows." --excerpt from a full review by Roger Ebert on RogerEbert.com
