Hold onto your eyeballs for one of the most dazzling and transcendent documentaries of all time – Godfrey Reggio’s hypnotic experimental masterpiece Koyaanisqatsi. Drawing its title from the Hopi word meaning “life out of balance,” this renowned experimental documentary reveals how humanity has grown apart from nature. Featuring extensive footage of natural landscapes and elemental forces, the film gives way to many scenes of modern civilization and technology. The visual tone poem contains neither dialogue nor a vocalized narration: its tone is set by the juxtaposition of images and the exceptional music by Philip Glass. This mind-opening masterwork will change the way you think about documentary and cinema all together, so open your mind to the whole world with Koyaanisqatsi!
