This screening of this 2002 film directed by Godfrey Reggio with a score by Philip Glass will be accompanied with live music provided by Philip Glass & The Philip Glass Ensemble featuring guest cellist Matt Haimovitz. This will be the first time Naqoyqatsi will be performed in over a decade!
Naqoyqatsi is the third and final film in the "Qatsi Trilogy," which began with Koyaanisqatsi and Powaqqatsi. Naqoyqatsi aims to show society's transition from a natural environment to a technologically-based one. It uses archival footage and stock images which are manipulated and processed digitally, then intercut with computer generated imagery.
This event is part of Philip Glass's Days and Nights Festival, September 25-27, 2015.
