This self-reflexive musical/comedy/documentary imaginatively juxtaposes eye-opening archival material, painterly contemporary footage, and mock interviews to create a breathtaking fusion of Koyaanisqatsi’s hypnotic visual aesthetics and Monty Python’s wry sardonic humor. Part critique of Western colonialism, part cultural history, part political satire, and part apocalyptic premonition, this film is no dry, shriveled fruit. Like fresh pomegranate, its structural intricacies are bursting with life, color, and complex flavors.  TW
