Meh. Still scratching my head over the idea of how someone thought this was worth making a movie of.

I couldn't make it through the first ten minutes. Had to stop it and find something else to watch. Forced dialogue, terrible acting. I really have trouble believing that anyone in the first ten minutes of episode 1 has ever acted before. It was as if ghey were reading lines they had never seen before from cards. I love this genre. I was looking forward to binging the whole series. I'm not hard to please. This was just to bad to watch. Big disappointment.

This is a well made, yet intentionally misleading propaganda flick, posing as an honest documentary. It is intended to create the false perception that, instead of being invaders who were finally driven out after centuries of oppressive occupation, Muslims were somehow unjustly driven out and their influence erased. Now imagine invading hordes have suddenly taken over your country and suppressed your native cultural and religious ideologies by penalty of tortured death. Then, after centuries, you drive them out. Who wouldn't purge the land of evey trace of their attempted cultural upheaval? Its no conspiracy... They were just oppressive invaders who were driven out. Now its happening again, and propaganda like this is part of the plan.
