              Samsara Is The Most Beautiful Movie That You Can’t Afford To Miss

              This movie appeals to every photographer due to the stunning visuals. Shot entirely on 70mm film, Samsara is a movie that spans twenty five countries and took five years to make. Not only does it encompass the grand scope of humanity, the visuals are simply mesmerizing. Be sure to watch this trailer in HD and full screen to experience the full effect.

              The visuals follow a similar pattern to the movie, Baraka, which was also directed by Ron Fricke and produced by Mark Magidson.

              Here’s a little more about what the movie is about:

              Expanding on the themes they developed in BARAKA (1992) and CHRONOS (1985), SAMSARA explores the wonders of our world from the mundane to the miraculous, looking into the unfathomable reaches of man’s spirituality and the human experience. Neither a traditional documentary nor a travelogue, SAMSARA takes the form of a nonverbal, guided meditation. Through powerful images, the film illuminates the links between humanity and the rest of nature, showing how our life cycle mirrors the rhythm of the planet. – Vimeo

              The movie will be screening throughout the world and will last till at least October. To find out where and when it will be playing near you, you can go here to find out.
