A quiet (wordless) meditation on the nature of living beings and their interconnectedness. It's exactly what some have come to expect from films geared toward the artistic: contemplative, meandering, very little plot. However, the strength of the images, the editing, and the spiritual/reincarnation narrative do more than enough to lift this film above the cliche adjectives that plague others of its kind. In essence, it is simply life unfolding in all of its natural cycles, some not commonly grasped, and then makes some theoretical leaps with how it all fits together (don't want to reveal too much). It's a unique achievement with uncommon views, which makes for an unforgettable viewing. Not a film that beckons a return but it stays with you and just might change the way you see things. Beautifully done and verging on profound.
