First of all, this is a metafilm, some hollywood propaganda, and it is
not meditative at all, but it is a thing that students should see in any
introduction to film class:

The youtube version looks terrible, if anyone knows of a better one I would
love to see it.

I guess I think of Jordan Belson's _Cycles_ as the kind of thing you are
looking for.  Pennebaker's _Daybreak Express_ is a cool and beautiful film
that starts slow, then becomes very upbeat and exciting, but then becomes
slow and quiet again at the end.

McLaren's _A Chairy Tale_ is kind of weird and might be a bit long for
keeping students attention, but I think it makes a point about being
loved and appreciated.

Keaton's _The Railrodder_ is on youtube and it is in many ways a kind of
slow and contemplative film.   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xYmcN12M97o
May require some explanation about swimming the atlantic and so forth.

So many of the abstract films I can think of are anything but slow and
contemplative...
