The Hopi word for chaos seems fitting for this observational documentary, which presents a striking series of natural wonders from North America before exploring human achievements. The film contrasts impressive landscapes shaped over millennia with remarkable structures built by people in a relatively short time. While not comparable to the Grand Canyon in size, certain human accomplishments deserve recognition, accompanied by Philip Glass’s score as it guides us through this journey. I didn't always find that music appealing; at times it felt almost sleep-inducing. However, for the most part, it complements carefully edited visuals illustrating both our potential to coexist with nature and our capacity for destruction. Considerable artistry went into arranging the timeline and photography, using light, shadows, clouds, and effective time-lapse techniques to depict the evolution of natural elements, industry, and devastation. It makes you consider what might be avoided if we were more mindful of what we build and embraced a less wasteful lifestyle, potentially lessening the excessive displays and our detrimental impact on the environment that are shown here. The ninety-minute film is surprisingly easy to watch, and perhaps its important message about seeking greater harmony would resonate with a wider audience. I’m not certain the title assists in this regard; I struggle to pronounce it, much less recommend it—but if you appreciate large-scale spectacle, this one is difficult to surpass.
