Samsara
From the director and producer of
Baraka and
Chronos comes another experimental, dialogue-free "documentary" in the
Koyaanisqatsi mold. We're treated to a welter of gorgeous images from around the globe: Indian dancers, Tibetan mandalas, Brazilian garbage dumps, Thai ruins, Saudi Arabian skyscrapers, Jerusalem's Wailing Wall. What's it all about? Life, death, rampant consumerism, "we are all one" interconnectedness? Your guess is as good as mine. But, damn, is it pretty.
