Description: Set to the life-affirming rhythms of varied religious rituals and nature's own primitive beat, Baracka--the Sufi word for "blessings"-- portrays the interconnection all humans share with the earth entrance. In a transcendentally poetic tour of the globe Baracka travels to China, Brazil, Kuwait and major U.S. and European sites capturing both the harmony and the calamity that humans and nature have inflicted upon the earth.
