The Holy Mountain
Alejandro Jodorowsky
Tartan DVD
1970
Jodorowsky’s visionary mystical journey follows a Christ-like Thief as he seeks a holy mountain under the guidance of the Alchimist (played by the director), together with seven other people chosen among the world’s most powerful politicians and businessmen. Combining mordant political satire, Zen influences, irreverent humour, a surreal sense of the macabre and sumptuous visuals,
The Holy Mountain remains one of Jodorowsky’s most spellbinding works. The psychedelic experimental score was composed by Jodorowsky, Archies keyboard player Ron Frangipane and free jazz musician Don Cherry.
