Baraka Ismael Quinn

Ron Frike illustrates in the film Baraka a different pattern on how humans have affected natural habitat and species. Quinn also combines different music linking to scenarios in which it enhances the purpose of the message he is trying to convey. The music is merged so well that in different scenes viewers feel as if they were in the scenario and if it was their own culture. Sympathy and grateful were to mix feelings I felt as the documentary started revealing animals in their natural habitats. Then, there were different tribes sharing a similar way of living by having a leader, religion and beliefs. Do humans believe planet Earth belongs to them conquering and ruling it?

Leavers meditate have a powerful principle of care on all species and on themselves. On the contrary, takers, have a significant impact on Earth due to the abuse of consumption and lifestyle. Takers create a substantial amount of surplus, which they feel the need to conquer and ruling. Baraka portrays reflection on leavers and destruction from takers. The destruction of nature along with the evolution of humans turned tribes and small areas into creation of cities and industries. Citizens in New York are takers who live under stress and in a fast phase missing opportunities.
