Baraka screening

Settle in for a double feature of Mark Magidson's stunning two films, Baraka and Samsara. First, circumscribe the globe at the 70mm-print screening of 1992's Baraka, a 96-minute wordless, visual stunner of a documentary—and one of the Cinematheque's favorite movies. The marvel of cinematography consists of a succession of time-lapse images of human life and religion from around the world that range from elevating to heartbreaking. Samsara, another beautiful free-form doc, follows.
