A Good One.
The dock is a wake up call to preserve and revive our culture, to stop losing it to western influences and religions. Mashangva is an ideal face of this change, he is at the helm of a change he wants to bring in his society by going back to his roots and saving his community's culture through his music and lifestyle. A brilliant and convincing documentary.

Did not meet expectations
I am rating the DVD that I got. I'm not rating the DVD songs of Mashangva becuase i didn't receive it!!! Instead of Songs of Mashangva I got Sunny Leone Sunny Mornings!!
Have some sense.
Some knowledge.
Some common sense.
At least read the DVD description on the cover of the film that I ordered. Songs of Mashangva is a brilliant film about a music legend from the North East.
Pl return it as soon as possible!!

A good buy
The documentary traces the roots of the man who is bringing folk music to the fore which has lost some of its charm. An honest account of the music and the man.For those who don't understand the language it is already subtitles. Check it out guys.

Awesome Stuff
This is a really good documentary. The Language is in a mix of Tangkhul, Manipuri and English but the it's subtitled in English. Some very good folk music. The Documentary also goes into Rewben's life and how he's trying to preserve Naga folk music.
