Since the majority of burning man principles are based on radical community and liberated from profits, it seems contradictory in spirit for this film to be sold. It seems to violate the principles of Burning Man. I cannot seem to find the gifted copy.

Typical colonial mindset...find a culture, immerse, and then capitalize. Maybe I'm naive to this project or cynical because I don't want to spend money watching it.
Anyway, I hope to have a chance at tickets to next year!
