Our take
The images populating this philosophical yet dialogue-free documentary provide an arresting snapshot of humanity, from nature’s majesty and the intricacies of religious rites to the colossal scale of mass production and poverty. Baraka is a dizzyingly epic cinematic expedition across the globe.
