Baraka (1992) is a non-narrative film directed by Ron Fricke, the same cinematographer from the amazing, might send you a bit crazy, Koyaanisqatsi. Baraka was filmed using mostly time-lapse photography in order to capture the essence of what is... humanity.
Filmed in 152 locations in 24 countries, it's a must see film in my eyes. Hit play on the two minute trailer and see what you think.
I'd almost forgotten about this wonderful film, until just recently.
Baraka meaning blessed...

looks amazing
why can nobody else on this blog do posts as interesting and funny as that ginger kid guy?
comedy is good. but broaden your mind fool. educate your mind further than some cheap laughs.
calling ginger kid interesting and funny. Was that a joke itself?
Not seen baraka, didn't know about it. Have seen Koyaanisqatsi though and it is amazing. Baraka looks to be the same. Much bigger than a film.
specks & ginger kid = the best two
Whats going on here then?
I am the cheap laugh king, I like nothing better.
Oh and BIG POST specks. She runs this...trust.
will blockbusters have it ?
LOL at all of this.
This post was not supposed to be funny... so thats a sound observation.
The trailer doesn't really do such an AMAZING film justice. Honestly, its amazing. You just have to watch it in full.
Gary Pounder I'm not sure if blockbuster will have it. Why don't you try and get it and report back to me.
BARAKAAAAAAAA
The anon comment about me being the best has a bit of truth to it though.
