This is a not a comedy, although, it is presented as one. This is an way of life for a village and a people. It is more tragic than it is humorous. It is about the values of a family. Each member of the family brings honor or disgrace to a family. Honor and disgrace is determined by the norms of a given culture and the group in that culture. This is the tale of family living in a culture whose norms are determined by the group. What someone outside of the culture sees as humorous, those who live and share the values of that culture will find the outcome tragic. In this film, when you remove the mask of comedy, you begin to see and wear the mask of tragedy. To find this film to be a comedy is a real tragedy.
