Line 6:
''Baraka'' is a [[Documentary]] directed by Ron Fricke and released in 1992. Its topic is, quite simply, planet Earth itself, and the sentient species that calls it home. The ''entire movie'' is nothing but [[Scenery Porn]]. Imagine our planet filmed as though it was [[Avatar (film)|Pandora]] and you're halfway there.
 
Filming was done in 152 locations in 24 different countries around the world. In order to get the full effect, it was shot in the special Todd-AO 70  mm format, the only film since 1971 to have used such a format, and in 2008 became the first-ever film scanned with 8K resolution.
 
A sequel, also directed by Ron Fricke and titled ''Samsara'', was released in 2011.
