Samsara - The eternal cycle of existence

***Not recommended for children under 12.***

Samsara is the work of Ron Fricke and Mark Magidson, the award-winning creators of Baraka and Chronos. Their film is a completely new visual and musical experience; an artistic work that is uniquely different from anything else in theaters.

Samsara is a Sanskrit word that refers to a deeper understanding of the ever-changing phenomena in the eternal cycle of life. This is also the starting point of the film: Fricke and Magidson explore the elusive yet functioning connection that, according to Eastern religions, spans our lives and rebirths.

The crew filmed in 24 countries on 5 continents over a period of 5 years. The stunning footage was captured on 70mm film, which is what makes for such an astonishing visual experience, based on sacred lands, disaster-stricken areas, industrial complexes, and natural wonders. Like Baraka, The Face of the Earth is a work without narration or descriptive text, experienced entirely by the viewer, without any influence, and is by no means a traditional documentary. Its motivational power is enormous: breathtaking images and transcendent music come together to form a whole, combining the world of the past with the world of today.

Samsara is a journey of discovery, a spiritual journey: it soars from painful depths to wonders, illuminating the connections between humanity and nature...
