Philip Glass Ensemble: Powaqqatsi
Description
Tickets on sale: Friday, May 29, 2026 at 10am.
Five years after Godfrey Reggio stunned audiences with Koyaanisqatsi, he again joined forces with composer Philip Glass and other collaborators for a second chapter: Powaqqatsi. Here, Reggio turns his sights on third-world nations in the Southern Hemisphere. Forgoing the sped-up aesthetic of the first film, Powaqqatsi employs a meditative slow motion in order to reveal the beauty of the traditional ways of life in those parts of the planet, and to show how cultures there are being eroded as their environments are taken over by industry. This is the most intensely spiritual segment of Reggio’s philosophical and visually remarkable Qatsi Trilogy.
Experience the full film on the big screen as the acclaimed Philip Glass Ensemble performs the soundtrack live to picture.
