The Alchemy of Alejandro Jodorowsky
Listen now
Description
Celebrating the 50th anniversary of Alejandro Jodorowsky's mystical magnum opus The Holy Mountain, three classics by the controversial Chilean surrealist return to cinemas in the Netherlands nationwide. With Sophie replacing producer Elliot, who will be traveling the world for a while, our hosts Tom, Kiriko, and Hugo discuss the impact of 60s and 70s transgressive cinema, the heritage of the counter-culture, where the provoking works of Jodorowsky fit in, and if the spirit of those times and their cultural expressions live on in our current cinematic culture. You can find tickets for our Jodorowsky screenings here. With our partners Mubi, you can enjoy 30 days free of handpicked cinema at mubi.com/lab111.
