Can you recall the name of this movie?

[ellenrr]

The name is not an English word-- something like Katsmata, but not that.
It has - if I recall - no words, but scenes, ex of great traffic jams, of things speeding along, of civilizations' follies, something like a world gone mad. It seems very appropriate to me now, and I cannot recall the name.
It would have been made at least 20 years ago - maybe more.
Thanks!

1. Koyaanisqatsi: Life Out of Balance

Tells the story of pollution, ecological destruction, and waste in pictures.

2. As noted, I think you're thinking of "Koyaanisqatsi"

It's a fantastically visual film with a pitch-perfect score by Phillip Glass.
