Director Ron Fricke this summer will release the “non-narrative” film Samsara, a follow-up to his critically acclaimed 1992 movie Baraka.
Though there's no concrete plot here, the Sanskrit term Samsara means rebirth and Fricke's visually astounding flick, shot over 5 over years in more than 25 countries, will follow an expected path, from creation, the “spirit taking form,” life, death and, yes, creation once again. Think Samsara‘s being released in anticipation of 2012 prophecies?
No matter why this movie was made, or what it's really about, it's chock full of incomparable imagery from around the globe. Watch the trailer AFTER THE JUMP.
