[The Qatsi Trilogy.](http://www.koyaanisqatsi.org/)

[For All Mankind](http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0780022319/qid=1054277122/sr=1-1/ref=sr_1_1/103-0583255-9901406?v=glance&s=dvd).

No film collection is complete without these movies. The Qatsi Trilogy has been highly influential (okay, the first two have, the third’s still in theaters) in the filmmaking industry. _For All Mankind_ is some of the loveliest footage of the Apollo missions that I’ve ever seen.
