Fires of Kuwait is better

I watched Lessons of Darkness after seeing a GIF on Reddit of a fireman igniting an oil well by throwing a torch.

Herzog made an artistic film with an operatic, apocalyptic score over helicopter footage of Mordor-like desolation. It's awe inspiring and beautiful, but it's also a grim and angry work.
I preferred "Fires of Kuwait". It's more informative, has better photography and, most importantly it's hopeful.
