This exquisite documentary enters the surreal world of Qatari sheikhs with a passion for falconry. The opulence of this Middle Eastern gas state is on display as the men race SUVs, fly their falcons around on private jets, and take their pet cheetahs out for desert spins in their Ferraris. The result is a film jaw-dropping not only for its displays of wealth, but for the pure cinematic beauty.
