Anima Mundi was made at least 5 years ago.  I first saw the film at the
Goldman Environmental Awards program in 1993 and we made it part of the
National Conference of Returned Peace Corps Volunteers in Berkeley in the
Summer of 1993.  Marco describes it well.

I was not aware of either  Koyaanisqatsi or Powaqqatsi.  Are copies of them
publically available?
