Samsara
Opisy(1)
Samsara to rodzaj półtoragodzinnej etiudy filmowej, nakręconej na taśmie 70mm o wyjątkowej jakości wizualnej. To podróż przez dziką przyrodę, starożytne cywilizacje do współczesności. Tylko obraz i dźwięk... ale to wystarczy by się zachwycić. Nie da się nie wspomnieć o walorach zmysłowych filmu, który zdecydowanie nie pozostawi widza bez wewnętrznych refleksji na temat życia. Ron Fricke z premedytacją kontrastuje przyrodę, zabytki, dokonania starożytnych kultur z współczesnym światem konsumpcjonizmu, by pokazać jego małość wobec tego, co ludzkość i natura zdążyły osiągnąć w przeszłości.

Two rums to room two-two-two. La-la-la, you moron. Something like that. I like videos with beautiful images and mystical music, but only if they are no longer than five minutes and aren’t presented as documentaries on YouTube. It’s pretty good as a source of wallpapers for the whole year, but other than that… perhaps it could be nice for ethereal philosophical beings, who may find a meaning of their choice and talk about it at length. They may find a profound answer about the state of civilisation. Or something else.

Checkered to the point of often being more of a detriment than a benefit, and with a soundtrack that is no match to the visuals. That couldn't happen with Reggio. But it is still extremely impressive in more than one passage.

The creators try to introduce us to interesting places in the world, and I must say that right from the beginning they choose visually fascinating pieces. We find ourselves in an Asian country (probably Thailand or Myanmar) and we are admiring a beautiful landscape scattered with incredible greenery, from which Buddhist temples and palaces emerge. It's almost like another planet. It completely takes our breath away to see the pattern being poured onto the floor. Critics will immediately think about what would happen if someone coughed while admiring it up close. But the view is dazzling, and I am amazed at what people can create. This also applies to further travels that take us to cities, or rather to abandoned areas where it is evident that people used to live there, but now they are cities and places of the dead. The creators - the cameramen - find incredibly interesting details that present us with both beauty and destruction. And the music adapts to that, always perfectly chosen for the particular scenery, as if resonating in high ceilings but also bowing to the ineffability of natural beauty.
