The title derives from the Hopi language and means "life in transformation" or "parasitic way of life" or "life in transition". This is the second of a trilogy of experimental documentaries on modern society, technology, the natural world, and the many costs of "progress". Powaqqatsi, which has no dialogue, focuses more on the conflict in third world countries between traditional ways of life and the new ways of life introduced with industrialization.
