"Baraka" Screening @ Egyptian (6/29)



Inspired by the Sufi word meaning "breath of life," BARAKA is a mind-expanding, spiritual journey around the globe (shot in 24 countries on five continents), from director-cinematographer Ron Fricke (who photographed the earlier KOYAANISQATSI) and producer Mark Magidson (the Imax film CHRONOS). Filmed entirely without dialogue in a stunning cascade of crystalline, time-lapse 70mm images, BARAKA is quite simply breathtaking. "Smashingly edited, superbly scored … speaks volumes about the planet without uttering a single word." - Suzan Ayscough, Variety.


This Wednesday, The American Cinematheque @ The Egyptian Theater in Hollywood will be screening a 70mm print of hte 1992 film Baraka. The trailer above is a fan re-edit trailer - attempting to find a trailer in decent video quality from a film almost 20 years old was more difficult than I thought.


$7-$11.
