Like paging through the world’s largest, most lavish issue of National Geographic, only with more exciting musical accompaniment, it can hardly be beaten for sheer spectacle.

God billed-film af fotografen bag klassikeren "Koyaanisqatsi". Man savner lidt Philip Glass' musik fra "Koyaanisqatsi"-trilogien, men ellers fin.
