The Begotten Cycle

Begotten is considered by Merhige himself as the start of an unofficial trilogy. There is a prologue to the intended second installment in the trilogy, which is the 14-minute short Din of Celestial Birds, which deals with evolution and premiered in 2006 on Turner Classic Movies, and was shot in similar visual fashion as Begotten.
