Powaqqatsi: Life in Transformation
Powaqqatsi: Life in Transformation ★★★½ 1988 (G)
Director Reggio's followup to “Koyaanisqatsi” doesn't pack the wallop of its predecessor. Still, the cinematography is magnificent and the music of Philip Glass is exquisitely hypnotic as we are taken on a spellbinding video collage of various third world countries and see the price they've paid in the name of progress. Part 2 of a planned trilogy. 95m/C VHS, DVD. D: Godfrey Reggio; M: Philip Glass.
