It Must Make Peace featured in the 'Sights to see at CIMMfest' article in the Chicago Reader:
"Copious performance footage, much of it staged specifically for the filmmakers, serves as the background for commentary by musicians such as Afel Bocoum and Toumani Diabate that provides cultural context for various modes of music making. The music is lovely and the footage is beautifully shot."
