I am not sure that Kikapu is as sentimental as you and I,my brother(I asked him too if you remember)...
And try to imagine it green,green with vineyards,orange and plum orchards,almond,wallnut and fig trees,wheat and legume fields,plenty of sheep and goat herds...and a little boy of 10 riding on a donkey bareback...
I can see that little boy very clearly Bir, and it's a beautiful picture I have in my mind right now...

Did you not watch the fiasco when it was election time,how they turned against each other , the bribes ,blackmail and tantrums for votes etc, etc, also nuns attacking other nuns, sending them to hospital.. Yet they are supposed to set examples .
Yeah I would stay away from them if i was you.
just an observation, the makings of a movie i would say.
