From Nepal to Kenya, from Australia to Brazil, people try to cope with the changes that have altered their landscape, crowding them together and speeding up daily life. The film shows us these alienated people, but also images of traditions--whirling dervishes and Tibetan monks--that offer different, peaceful ways of existence. Shot in 70mm in 24 countries, this awesome musical and visual montage in the tradition of KOYAANISQATSI expresses the global existence of nature and man in the broadest sensory terms.

T-pinin (DIFF:I): Baraka Blessings from Fricke
Pros: Breathtaking scenes of natural world · Kecak dance · editing · music Cons: Some similarities in subject matter & techniques to Koyaanisquatsi Bottom Line: My favorite movie of all time...
Pros: This movie will move you. Cons: No "plot" per se. Beautiful and Moving
Pros: Stunningly beautiful imagery, excellent sound track. Cons: Poor DVD transfer. Absolutely Breathtaking
Pros: 70mm, Digital Sound Cons: Probably does not have mass appeal A film made for DVD/HDTV
Pros: A videotape record of this masterpiece is better than no record at all. Cons: This 70mm gem is not yet released on DVD, and is rarely shown in theaters. Baraka is outstanding.
Pros: Stunning imagery of humanity. Wordlessly deeply moving. Cons: None I can think of. Honestly. Bottom Line: Baraka - The magic of movement
Pros: Excellent use of color, sound, and movement of global culture and environment. Cons: No dialog or storyline, though the film does have meaning in it. Bottom Line: Meditation on Planet Earth
Pros: A meditation on the state of our home planet. Cons: Some will consider it manipulative of our emotions. Bottom Line: |
