Environmental Storytelling with Video Stills Project
As a class we are going to watch parts of the documentary Samsara a non-narrative movie directed by Ron Fricke and produced by Mark Magidson.
A summary of the movie says, "Samsara explores the wonders of our world from the mundane to the miraculous, looking into the unfathomable reaches of humanity's spirituality and the human experience.
