The Qatsi trilogyTemplate:Efn is a series of three non-narrative films produced by Godfrey Reggio and scored by Philip Glass. The trilogy includes Koyaanisqatsi (1982), Powaqqatsi (1988), and Naqoyqatsi (2002).

The titles of the films are derived from the Hopi language, in which the word qatsi translates to "life." The series was produced by the Institute For Regional Education, who also created the Fund For Change.[1][2]

Legacy

The cinematic films of Koyaanisqatsi cinematographer Ron FrickeChronos (1985), Baraka (1992), and Samsara (2011)—are also made in a similar style.
