Prometheus, on an Odyssean journey, crosses the Brooklyn Bridge in search of the characters of his imagination. After meeting the Muse, he proceeds to the "forest." There, under an apple tree, he communes with his selves, represented by celebrated personages from the New York "underground scene" who appear as modern correlatives to the figures of Greek mythology.

«Koyaanisqatsi» — с языка индейцев племени хопи — это безумная жизнь, беспорядочная жизнь, жизнь на грани распада, жизнь вне баланса, жизнь, требующая изменений во имя продолжения жизни… "Коянискацци" (Koyaanisqatsi; Жизнь, выведенная из равновесия) - документальный фильм Годфри Реджио с музыкой композитора-минималиста Филипа Гласса и киносъёмками Рона Фрика. Лента содержит большое количество фрагментов, снятых по технологии замедленной киносъёмки. Фильм полностью лишён дикторского текста и актёрской речи, однако его музыкальное оформление, на которое опирается сюжет, занимает в повествовании такое же значение, как и видеоряд, и, фактически, создаёт атмосферу фильма. Это первый из трилогии фильмов "Кацци", показывающей с различных сторон взаимодействие человека и технологии. Более десятилетия из-за лицензионных ограничений фильм "Коянискацци" не издавался, так как Филип Гласс и его ансамбль гастролировали с ним, вживую исполняя музыку прямо перед киноэкраном во время показов.

In 1919 an art school opened in Germany that would change the world forever. It was called the Bauhaus. A century later, its radical thinking still shapes our lives today. Bauhaus 100 is the story of Walter Gropius, architect and founder of the Bauhaus, and the teachers and students he gathered to form this influential school. Traumatised by his experiences during the Great War, and determined that technology should never again be used for destruction, Gropius decided to reinvent the way art and design were taught.
