I saw a pre-screening and I can guarantee that it&#8217;s riveting.  Beautiful imagery and lot&#8217;s of languagey stuff in there too. You can read a review of it here by ANU linguist Joe Blythe.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=ling6002.wordpress.com&amp;blog=8408176&amp;post=290&amp;subd=ling6002&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
