Global, experimental documentary covering scenes of natural events and human activity, shot at 152 locations across 23 countries over a 14-month period. Roger Ebert famously said of the film: "If man sends another Voyager to the distant stars and it can carry only one film on board, that film might be Baraka."
Baraka was the first film in over twenty years to be photographed in the 70mm Todd-AO format.

"Either an awesome vision of the world in all its time-lapsed wonder or visual whale music."

Total Film"Any one sequence might work powerfully in its own right, but string them together with a musical overlay and the banality of the connections becomes apparent."

Time Out
Time Out"It is claimed that the great age of travel is dead - that there are no longer amazing, exotic, beautiful and fearsome places for the traveler to discover. A movie like Baraka gives hope."
