excellent follow up to Koyannisqatsi. Stirring music and visually stunning.

Visually stunning, sought together with spellbinding music. Capturing the third worlds daily life and parts of its ancient culture. But, it never manages to outplay Koyaanisqatsi.

Call me a freak but I think this one is every bit as good as Koyaanisqatsi. It's different, to be sure, but there are images in here so beautiful, haunting &/or disturbing you may never forget them. For me, it's the 4 year old girl single-handedly driving the ox cart. It blows my mind every time I see it - and I've watched this a dozen times at least. And there's something new to notice every time as well. I really admire Reggio's ability to find beauty even in squalor without ever resorting to romanticising it.

Overall, not as enthralling or viscerally impactful as Koyaanisqatsi, but still a helluva wallop. The interplay between image and sound is much less abstract than in Koyaanisqatsi, with Philip Glass making use of a variety of world instruments, and director Godfrey Reggio focusing much more on the small scale of everyday human experience. Even though I find this the weakest of the three Qatsi films (I used to favor Koyaanisqatsi, but Naqoyqatsi is slowly winning out), it still has many sequences of incredible power. I had the good fortune to see Powaqqatsi live at Prospect Park in Brooklyn, with Philip Glass, his ensemble, and the Brooklyn Childrens Choir performing the score live. Reggio was also in attendance. Five years ago, I saw Glass and his ensemble do the same for Koyaanisqatsi. Two down, one to go :)
