Das Sanskrit-Wort SAMSARA bezeichnet das sich unaufhörlich drehende Rad des Lebens, den ewigen Kreislauf des Entstehens und Vergehens. SAMSARA nimmt die Zuschauer mit auf eine unvergessliche Reise durch traumhafte Landschaften zu buddhistischen Mönchen, balinesischen Tänzern, hinter die Mauern eines Gefängnisses und einer Waffenfabrik, zu heiligen Stätten und zu von den Menschen und der Industrialisierung zerstörten Gebieten bis hin zu den Gläubigen nach Mekka. Geburt und Tod, Tradition und Moderne, Glaube und Hoffnung, Kampf und Vergebung - die Kamera verdeutlicht die Gegensätze und Spannungsverhältnisse, die unser Dasein heute bestimmen. Die ausdrucksstarken, bis ins kleinste Detail durchkomponierten Aufnahmen von SAMSARA illustrieren prägnant, inwieweit unser Lebenszyklus dem Rhythmus unseres Planeten (noch) entspricht. Die Welt, wie man sie noch nie gesehen oder gedacht hat - eine unvergessliche Reise zu den unterschiedlichsten Ländern dieser Welt und vor allem in die eigene Seele. (Busch Media Group)

Two rums to room two-two-two. La-la-la, you moron. Something like that. I like videos with beautiful images and mystical music, but only if they are no longer than five minutes and aren’t presented as documentaries on YouTube. It’s pretty good as a source of wallpapers for the whole year, but other than that… perhaps it could be nice for ethereal philosophical beings, who may find a meaning of their choice and talk about it at length. They may find a profound answer about the state of civilisation. Or something else.

Checkered to the point of often being more of a detriment than a benefit, and with a soundtrack that is no match to the visuals. That couldn't happen with Reggio. But it is still extremely impressive in more than one passage.

The creators try to introduce us to interesting places in the world, and I must say that right from the beginning they choose visually fascinating pieces. We find ourselves in an Asian country (probably Thailand or Myanmar) and we are admiring a beautiful landscape scattered with incredible greenery, from which Buddhist temples and palaces emerge. It's almost like another planet. It completely takes our breath away to see the pattern being poured onto the floor. Critics will immediately think about what would happen if someone coughed while admiring it up close. But the view is dazzling, and I am amazed at what people can create. This also applies to further travels that take us to cities, or rather to abandoned areas where it is evident that people used to live there, but now they are cities and places of the dead. The creators - the cameramen - find incredibly interesting details that present us with both beauty and destruction. And the music adapts to that, always perfectly chosen for the particular scenery, as if resonating in high ceilings but also bowing to the ineffability of natural beauty.
