If you're in to that kind of stuff check out Koyaanisqatsi & Powaqqatsi

Or Baraka and Samsara if you'd prefer films of the same tradition, minus the somewhat over-the-top Philip Glass scores (which I enjoy more on their own than as part of the films).
Samsara is excellent. I watched in an indie cinema, and it really generated a mood without any form of judgement in what was being portrayed.
There is also LUCKY PEOPLE CENTER INTERNATIONAL [0]

Not a decade goes by, not a decade, without someone mentioning Koyaanisqatsi.

It's in my top 5 "must watch" movies.
