[Varathran]

Wow! The expression of that monkey! Very human! And those creationists still doubting the existence of evolution.

[Verradonairun]

They must be very cold when they get out, I wonder how they dry out without getting hypothermic.

[jaxumaa]

my names baraka :) it means blessing.

[daveanne23]

whats the meaning behind this monkey?pls help me :(

[RippdUb]

@daveanne23

I believe that the monkey signifies us in paradise = what we've lost in getting to where we are now = kinda like us in Eden before we discovered the evils of knowledge.

[letusremoveyourshort]

@RippdUb

So..... knowledge is evil? You are missing the point~eden was pointless without choice or knowledge! What is the benchmark unless you have choice.

[RippdUb]

@letusremoveyourshort

wtf are you on about? I missed no point and didnt say that 'I' believe knowledge is evil. I was answering a question about the symbolism of the monkey in the pool which = our humble beginning. The real test of our progression is finding the balance between paradise and knowledge, or, completing the circle by returning to or recreating paradise through knowledge.

[RippdUb]

@letusremoveyourshort

or alternatively...

our progression should be to gain knowledge enough to surpass the suffering of the human existence and become gods in our own right to begin the whole thing all over again.

Regardless...

In the context of Baraka the monkey in the pool and the shots of us through the rest of the movie is equatable to the story of the fall of man. The monkey in the pool is us before the apple and the rest of the movie shows us, for better or worse, after the apple.

[swimsoutofwater]

@RippdUb interesting, good take. I see it as the light we should be seeking. While the monkey and others in worship seem at peace, and the busyness of those around them are distressed. The world cries out because of the injustices done to our fellow living beings: slavery, mutilation, sweatshops, abuse. Return to quiet solitude with the maker brings peace, regardless of the faith

[letusremoveyourshort]

@daveanne23

humble beginings. and just peace. hence BARAKA

[JJPatino]

Beautiful... and his eyes... more expressive than some human's eyes...

[FERENCEFF]

Baraka presents mankind stripped of all pretensions.

[letusremoveyourshort]

@FERENCEFF

wow that is awesome. i once read if i was an alien visting this planet i would send BARKA back home as a post card. two amazing intel people cool man.

[brunocabelao]

Deep Purple - Is Monkey on The Water

[bugabuse]

@brunocabelao What kind of monkey was that?

[brunocabelao]

@bugabuse i'm not sure exactly. I guess is some kind of babuine. If that's what you're asking

[bugabuse]

@brunocabelao yeah that's what i was wondering. it looks really human-like don't you think?

[jaroslorenc]

Monkey relaxes as a shaman!

[hasekfer]

relax relax my little brother!

[Irukez]

we should all learn from this monkey - soak in the reality, enjoy the presence...relax :-)

[davidt2468]

what kind of message is trying to be conveyed in this scene?

[shwabas]

i like warm water too--my acupuncturist tells me its cuz i have "an angry liver"

[2oclockbeanfiend]

that monkey is so CHILLIN

[Dubfire73]

Name of Sequel please?

[luzmary08]

Espectacular

[luzmary08]

Simplemente Hermoso

[TheCatsMeowIrishGirl]

This is beautiful. I saw Baraka for the first time about 5 years ago. I LOVE it. It is so pure in a world filed with corruption and greed!!

[Rebel3Rice]

for some reason i hate trying to enjoy this type of movie because it gives the whole family a chance to talk through the whole movie...... >:/

[NUMBband]

go back to kindergarten.

[curiousgeorge555]

One of my fave movies of all time. I like the folow up one he did as well. Thanks for the upload. ~cg5

[JaimeSouviens]

Why would a monkey possibly give a damn if it was polluting? A monkey would not care if it were abusing nature or not. They don't because they don't have the ability to do so, not because of some innate moral sense.

[JaimeSouviens]

Like a monkey wouldn't ride a monster truck across Texas if it could.

[MysticReverie]

lol

[shrxfn68]

We still have this feed at Best Buy. So everytime we head to a different store I always turn this one on. So relaxing:)

[TaijiBum]

Monkeys rule.

[DrMison]

On acid ? - watched it on chill out after an E and Magics

but acid sounds a great Idea but I'm not able le to watch any Monitor on Acid.

[XholocaustX]

dude, ive never seen this movie before, and i totally just watched it on 4 tabs. Trippy shit man, this movie is tight.

[kaspukas]

that monkey is sort of meditating...:) looks really present...nice clip

[soyindio503]

Cuanta diversidad cultural hay en el mundo. Este video es para que respetemos las creencias y culturas. Me alegro que la humanidad dejo atras la salvage mentalidad de destruir, asesinar y conquistar. No somos perfectos pero vamos por buen camino.

[giantcrayonpillow]

HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA. and I the ONLY person that thinks that this is the funniest movie ever? XD

[slappedcheek]

take acid and watch this film........have done about 10 times...........even more awseome..........BEST FILM EVER

[thatsMYbeef]

[amoroso13s]

simply wonderful

[hj351]

W.O.W. thank you for posting this film. seen it so mnay times, never get tired of it.

[marac1980]

This is what some call "apsolute movie". Feels like there is a God`s code in harmony of music and video. In joint, seems like ears overcome the eyes. Since eyes are focused to materialism, ears are more focused to spiritualism. Therefore, this movie is not for everybody`s ears.

[shotashine]

baraka es como un tributo a las qatsi, un tributo q les salio increiblemente bien. simplemente perfecta...

[soleilamethyste]

merci pour les vidéos de ce film magnifique plein de respect...

love and peace

This monkey looks deep in thought!! something is going through his head - makes me definitely think that we evolved along the same lines.

[zetterberg]

yea, the monkey is just taking it all in. Unfettered

[kinich16]

oh por dios!! era real el changuito q duerme cerca del rio :D

[tuciclotimia]

No sé si puede comparar con la trilogía qatsi, pero igual es impresionante.

[lilifluweel]

i crie al the time, by seeing this monkey. this is the best film everrrrrrrrrrr made. i can see it twice a year.

[petamanzju]

IS THIS VIDEO A JOKE IT FUCKING SUX

[SAIKOPAINT]

people like you are the joke, and are what make our world SUCK

[123tan123]

lmao..r u really that ignorant..or jus totally blinded by materialism??

[cocoyayala]

uffffff que pelicula! siempre que la comparo con otra... no hay comparacion...

[galuiot]

deep breath.... a impressiv image

[alexymaster]

This monkey seems to be so philosophical...

Like an old man.

Such a wonderful scene!

[sonrisa86]

scene with the monkey is my favourite :)

esp. when it closes eyes 1:23

[alexymaster]

Yeah,it's such a wonderful moment...I love it...

[Zenman1976]

Ron Fricke knows how to get a good shot, and this is also my fave scene out of all his movies, gives me goosebumps..

[lilifluweel]

when he closes his eyes, i always have to cry, more then ten times i saw the movie, i always crie!!

[miamimagicians]

Me too, what a wonderful film! I love this.

[juanjacinto]

excelente film

[ajfdillah]

Coolest shots period!!

[hoyle1911]

Those are some chill monkeys.  Living lavish, by monkey standards.

[DanielLaszloKovacs]

Without words - More than words - Transcendental! I LOVE THIS MAGIC, CALLED BARAKA!!!!!

[Saggezzasaphira]

sublime. una genialidad este film

[ThiSHmOng6uY]

These are probably the COOLEST MONKEYS ALIVE!

[patrick9648]

I love this movie, but it needs to be seen on DVD or High Definition. Whoever copied this video squeezed a widescreen image onto a standard 4:3 screen. It causes everyone to look skinny.

[tessabianca]

wish I could get that effect for myself in real life...LOL happy thoughts...happy thoughts....

[groovy37]

.. y los nombres de estos capitulos toman 'nuevos' nombres que realmente no son los del 'index' del film, espero que haya gente alla afuera que entienda a lo que me refiero! ;) Y con todo esto ..estoy tratando de que un 'angel' en españa, pueda ver este film! ;)) ..mientras tanto seguire 'predicando' sobre este film de la misma manera que lo hace sobre quienes ha tocado! ;) y si alguna vez 'Ron' te llega referencia de este mensaje! :D te digo que hiziste un 'tremendo' trabajo! de poca m****!!:D

[groovy37]

viva en este planeta .. humanos .. animales .. insectos .. 'piedras' .. estrellas .. y demas!! :) Por ahora ya lo he mirado mas de 40 veces .. ( y no me canso! :P ;) ) ..Creo que Ron Fricke, de una forma .. inadvertida, conjunto 'musica e imagenes' dando un tipo de codigo .. especialmente a los ultimos 5 capitulos. ( I forgot to write this in English .. but even the music and the 'credits' at the end .. ;) ) .. incluso la musica y los creditos al final dicen algo .. al menos eso creo ..cont ....

[groovy37]

y despues de mirarlo por una decena de veces, fue cuando hize llego el momento de 'iluminacion'. Aun cuando encuentro comentarios de este film que es muy bueno y es recomendable, siento que es un poco 'corto' el comentario, ya que 'llega' a un estado mas profundo de 'contacto' y 'realizacion'. :) Asi que por 'razones' mas profundas, he considerado a este film como 'religioso' no refieriendome a que 'pertenezca' a una 'religion' en especifico, pero todo lo contrario, toca a toda criatura ...cont.

[groovy37]

For the time being, I'll continue to preach on/with it as is works viceversa! ;) 'Fricke' if you ever get a reference of this message, you really did a great! F****!! job! :D .. now the Spanish version! :P ;) .... Este film fue recomendado sobre la sugerencia de que mas podia ver, si ya habia pasado la serie de 'Koyaanisqatsi' Serie de tres filmes, de contexto similar y hecho por otro cineasta. Pero de igual forma un enorme trabajo. Este film de Baraka lo he estado estudiando, ..cont ...

[groovy37]

until now .. I've watched it for .. above .. 40 times .. I guess .. and the turning point .. or points .. are the last 5 chapters .. I guess. I believe that 'Fricke' in somehow, inadvertently , 'encoded' the music and the images; resulting in defining 'names' for those chapters, and not just the names that actually appear on the 'index'. I hope there are some people out there that know what I'm talking about, and I've been trying to get my friend in Spain to get to see it. ..cont. ...

[groovy37]

I watched for at least ..from 15 to 20 times until really kick in!! In somehow, I've been disappointed with some of the comments that I've found on the sites that are more relate it to it, just saying how this film is awesome, mesmerizing, or other; "it's a way profound"!!!! For powerful reasons, I've been taken it more to the religious side, not meaning that belongs to a specific 'name' religion, but referring to all creatures in this planet, humans, animals, insects .. rocks .. stars ..cont...

[groovy37]

I'm gonna do a big effort in writing something in spanish and english .. so I guess I'm gonna leave at least 2 or 3 message regardless this film. I've found it 2 year ago, and since then I've been studying it. I'm not film student, but you don't have to be to open your senses to this one. Also it came to me for recommendation; as I was following the series of Koyaanisqatsi. Film very similar which is highly recommend. As I was saying, I've been studying it, and without any exageration .. cont...

[ridiai99]

No it's not.

[Kayenne54]

To 0428733 - Obviously, school person, you totally missed the point. Too busy texting your friends on your cell phone...you missed the biology lesson, the anthropology lesson, the cinematic lesson, the music lesson, the voice lesson, the political lesson, the civic lesson. the philosophy tutorial and the spiritual lesson.

I'd recommend watching it again. Quietly. And learn as much about this world and humanity as you can before you miss the point of your whole life. Turn off the cell phone.

[Grimmjow567]

@Kayenne54 You condescending piece of shit. =)

[Kayenne54]

@Grimmjow567

I stand by what I said. No need to descend into profanity, mate.

[runningwild984]

Great movie, I am a nature nerd and had to go out and buy this awesome movie.

[Spentastic]

This is more than nature runningwild984. Soul and life is what Baraka is about. Inspired cinema....

[uglygal93]

it is more for you maybe for him is just nature! don´t tell people what to think asshole

[uglygal93]

and KOYAANISQATSI fucking rules!!

[Zenman1976]

Just wait until Samasara comes out ;)

[0428733]

my whole school was exposed to this, I (nor any of my close friends) could stand it, I don't know, we're not movie critics or poets, so we found it boring

very amusing though

[babywu48]

why dont u watch the whole movie before you critize, this film was wonderful, I watched it twice.

[J21212]

why is youtube posting so addictive....

[Produccioneselsueco]

se fumó un porro el mono.

[cemec333]

A ver quién es capaz de sacar al mono del agua, con lo calentita que está y el frío que hace fuera.

To see this movie is a MUST!

[Impreschnelgoh]

An excerpt from a wonderful and recommended film.

[niceverdict]

agreed!!! It's soooooooooo poetic!hehe that's why it's called a poetic approach in docufilming..

there's a sequel to this!!!! 4 million dollars in 14 months travelling and documenting 24 countries and different culture!! definitely a must-see!!! I love every shot, and music and the arrangement of shots!!!!
