I just saw this documentary at the Toronto International Film Festival. The reaction from the audience was certainly supportive. The Smell of Paradise brings us remarkable interviews and footage of Chechen and Afgani warlords/terrorists/as they shift through the middle east trying to further their cause yet avoid assassination. I was amazed that thew journalists managed to attain such interviews as the subjects were often pursued by the US and Russian intelligence. As it turns out many of the interviewed subjects are now dead. I highly recommend this Documentary to Middle East followers and history and political buffs. My rated of 8 of 10 is based mostly on the fact that the footage we all experienced was rare and not attainable by larger and better financed journalists. Bravo!
