Any Burning Man experience from any year thus far has way more to offer than these guys ever considered bringing to the camera.
It seemed like most of the movie was the filmmakers interviewing themselves about Burning Man. All of that pointless crap should have been cut out of the movie! (Or, maybe just kept in this version for their mothers, who may never tire of their cute little faces.)
"Burning Man Festival-Special Edition" by Joe Winston is a serious look at the real thing, and far more enjoyable.

I was one among the group of folks, peripherally, who were documented here. All I can say is that this documentary is a) an accurate reflection of the weird folks who do this weird thing, b) an accurate depiction of the sometimes dificult issues that erupt when chatotic groups try to attempt big things, and c) a whole tank of nitrous full of giggles.

Of all the years I've been to Burningman, it's been hard to explain the experience to those who haven't. Journey to the Flames is the ideal documentary to help me with this mission! It takes you on a real ride of the true Burningman journey through the storylines of everyday people who create their own "playa" characters as they begin to explore themselves in such an extreme and playful environment.
This is a great DVD to give to friends and family who have wondered about what happens during those crazy 10 days- as well as a fun reminder to those who have gone... what a strange crazy trip it is.

this was the most accessible, informational, and fun/quirky doc i've seen on burning man. it's a hard topic to explain and this movie does such a good job of showing the many facets of the event. it had a memorable blend of fun & entertainment with good information that convinced me to finally take the plundge and go to the festival after years of hearing about it. it has great music, goofy & real characters, incredible visuals of the event, strong background info, and the bonus features were amazing - especially the sky divers plunging into the temporary city of 40,000 people. totally recommend it.

This documentary follows a group of close friends as they explore radical self-expression at the Burning Man festival at Black Rock City, Nevada. Great music and camera work set this Burning Man documentary apart from others that have been released. This one is filled with excitement and adventure as well as some hysterical moments -- those guys Jake and Steve are simply looney! If you have ever been, are thinking about going, or are just curious about Burning Man, this is a great place to start.
