This film has an interesting position in the collector's market, primarily due to its limited release and lack of mainstream recognition. Collectors often seek it out for its unique perspective and the authenticity of its subject matter. Copies can be quite scarce, especially in good condition, which adds to its charm and draws interest from those who appreciate rare ethnographic films. You don't see it pop up often, and when it does, it's usually talked about with a mix of curiosity and appreciation.
