doc response

This documentary describes India as a very vibrant place, and uses the perfect visuals to do so. It also paints India as this melting pot of culture, and does that perfectly through the things that the reporter does. the places, tastes, sounds, and smells communicated through this documentary add to experiencing the essence of India, from the Indus Valley to the legend of Soma.

This video encompasses the tale of the Indus Valley, shows where they would make Soma, gives background knowledge on language, and talks about much more. The language spoken, sanskrit bears a striking resemblance to greek and latin, among other languages including welsh. Horses were first domesticated in the indian subcontinent. Soma isnt a plant native to india.
