Baraka is a 1992 American non-narrative documentary film directed by Ron Fricke. The film is often compared to Koyaanisqatsi, the first of the Qatsi films by Godfrey Reggio for which Fricke served as cinematographer.[2] It was photographed in the 70 mm Todd-AO format, and is the first film ever to be restored and scanned at 8K resolution.[3][4]
