HOLY MOUNTAIN

I watched Alejandro Jodorowsky's 'The Holy Mountain' last night. I don't really feel like I can say much more than it is one of the most amazing films I've ever seen, without at least another watch. The themes of religion, sex, symbolism, death, life etc. I think are really helpful, especially for the next part of the project. The mise en scène too is utterly fantastic, with, interestingly, a lot of references to our manifesto in the layout of the rooms, symbols, colours. Furthermore, the latter part of the film concentrates on 9 beings coming together to form one immortal entity.


here's the trailer:
