Koyaanisqatsi

Director Godfrey Reggio Composer Philip Glass Cast Edward Asner, Pat Benatar, Jerry Brown
86' - 1982 - Documentary - Dialogue: English

This experimental film looks at the world and more specifically the effect man has had on the landscape and the environment. Without narration, the film shows the world in a pristine condition and untouched: blue skies, beautiful landscapes and endless vistas. The man-made world is much less appealing. Essentially a montage using a variety of film techniques to provide a visually stunning montage of images.
