Since it's not a major production/distribution company, finding venue to see this movie may be challenge.

I have seen the film last year in cinema.
It is a nice film but not a documentary and in my opinion some mistakes in the script...

It is nice to see Franko Nero (the actor plays the first " Django"), and also I know the bowyer and archery-trainer of the actors.

      It may not have been comfortable, but I doubt he felt the weight of a bow...It may have been quick access held that way...I must see this movie...I would say a lot of the pictures and the way he carried the bow in the film is pure speculation...I hate speculation sometimes, but it makes you think...

Watched the movie.
Recontructions are not bad if you dont look too close. The plot is credible. Not a bad movie in my opinion
It could have been titled: "why you had to eat that apple? endless retaliation"


***** SPOILER WARNING   ***********
How did they managed to recover the bow if in the movie....   (A)

Should be interesting!  Does it have closed captioning? >:D. Wee deaf guys appreciate that!  Taking advantage of a dead guy ain't fair, especially since he was apparently shot in the back!  Hope he wasn't holding aces and eights!

The few dialogs are made in rethic, an ancient language. No need to understand what they say  :OK

A new theorie ;):

It was the end of the daylight  perhaps with fog and snow drift. Ötzi dressed in fur  was not recognized as a man. He was confused at long distance with an animal and so shot in the back.
The hunter took no objects of Ötzi, so he could not be identified as the archer, who sent the arrow..... 8)

the bow.
bows, quivers and arrows look pretty genuine
