# BELIEF Burning Man
*Powerful small documentary about a girl and her dad mourning the loss of her mother and sister, his wife and daughter.*
Most people think Burning Man is just one big party filled with drugs, booze and sex.
But it is so much more. So much.
I went to Burning Man twice. First time in 2010 and again the next year.
Above the Temple in 2010.
Below the burning of the Temple in 2011. That years theme was Rites of Passage.
The Temple Burn is a very powerful event, which actually ends the Burning Man week. Very powerful and transformational.
