Koyaanisqatsi

Special Screening

Friday, January 13, 2017
7:00 PM–8:30 PM

1983, Godfrey Reggio, USA, 87 min.

Koyaanisqatsi (the Hopi Indian word meaning “life out of balance”) offers expansive imagery of urban life, technology, the environment, and humanity in time-lapse and saturated with a score composed by Philip Glass.

“Koyaanisqatsi is a visual tone poem, an essay, a concert, a comedy, a tragedy, a rollercoaster ride, a humbling and elating experience, and, to put it succinctly, one of the most important pieces of cinematic art created in late 20th century.” “•Vladimir Zelevinsky
