A Christ-like figure wanders through bizarre, grotesque scenarios filled with religious and sacrilegious imagery. He meets a mystical guide who introduces him to seven wealthy and powerful people, each representing a planet in the solar system. These seven, along with the protagonist, the guide, and the guide’s assistant, divest themselves of their worldly goods and form a group of nine who will seek the Holy Mountain in order to displace the gods who live there and become immortal.
Dir. Alejandro Jodorowsky, 1973, 113 mins.
Viewer Discretion Advised (contains strong sexual content and graphic violence).
Registration recommended.
