Samsara (Film)
Samsara reunites the team, whose award-winning films Baraka and Chronos were acclaimed for combining visual and musical artistry. Samsara is a Sanskrit word that means “the ever turning wheel of life.” Filmed over a period of almost five years and in twenty-five countries, Samsara transports us to sacred grounds, disaster zones, industrial sites, and natural wonders. By dispensing with dialogue and descriptive text, Samsara encourages our own inner interpretations inspired by images and music that infuses the ancient with the modern. Having no dialogue, this film is also suitable for the heard of hearing.
PG-13, Running Time 99 min. Directed By: Ron Fricke
