Koyaanisqatsi - EPIC SUMMER
A wordless journey contrasts the rhythms of nature with the speed and scale of modern life.
Without dialogue or a traditional narrative, Koyaanisqatsi explores the relationship between humanity, technology and nature. Vast landscapes give way to crowded cities, factories and endless streams of traffic. The film paints a hypnotic portrait of a world moving ever faster and further away from its natural balance.
Zonder dialoog of traditionele verhaallijn onderzoekt Koyaanisqatsi de verhouding tussen mens, technologie en natuur. Uitgestrekte landschappen maken plaats voor drukke steden, fabrieken en eindeloze verkeersstromen. De film schetst een hypnotiserend beeld van een wereld die steeds sneller beweegt en verder verwijderd raakt van haar natuurlijke evenwicht.
