Memorized the form in1993. This broke my criteria of good music and is one of my most beloved pieces of music. its the "Ironic punishment division of Hell" our society has become. I was lucky enough to see Koyaanisquasi live in Vancouver in 2005
This film is like the best of operas, where both music & drama sections are excellent & can stand up on their own, but, combined, lift each other up to a whole new level.
Thank you for reminding me, & showing people who've not experienced it before. Always better on a big high resolution screen with good audio, but it still has power even in this reduced form, & might spur some of us to go & watch the whole thing in a more immersive format.
Pure genius at work, the photography, the editing, and the music.
