Hi enoman,
I believe you are referring to the animation film "El Paraguas" (aka
"The Umbrella) written and directed by Tomás Welss.
You will find the film listed on The Internet Movie Database (IMDB):
http://us.imdb.com/Title?0250644
Here you will find a list of the films Tomás Welss has written,
produced and directed:
http://us.imdb.com/Name?Welss,%20Tom%E1s
Search terms:

(Google): paraquosee, paraguas, paraguas welss
  
I hope this helps!

Or, it is more likely to be the documentary film "Powaqqatsi",
directed by Godfrey Reggio (as suggested by Justaskscott and
Pinkfreud).

I believe that the posted answer is incorrect: the movie is probably Powaqqatsi.

The film you're looking for could be "Powaqqatsi," the second in a
trilogy of highly artistic films:

Great minds think alike!  ;-)  (It's always good to agree with
pinkfreud.)

In a way, I like jackburton's answer just as much -- it was clever how
he found it.  But I still think it's wrong.
