If we ever have to give aliens a brief run down on us, the planet, and our culture.. just send em this.
The absurdity of life. Nothing is permanent and into dust we eventually will become.
Every frame is an artwork that drags you in an hypnothsies you
The frames may be only silent pictures. But it feels like they strongly communicate with you
I have no doubt that there is not at least one scene here that will strike something deep in your core.
Not just a documentary, Samsara is an experience.
They showed the world as I rarely see it.
Absolutely the most beautiful images ever seen my a camera. So much emotion packed in with no dialogue. Stunning in every sense of the word
Just visually stunning. No narrative to speak of, just awe-inspiring images of our world.
Beautiful film, great to just watch and indulge in whilst drinking a cup of tea and just thinking about everything
