The Holy Mountain

Alex Thu, 01/09/2020 - 21:14

Director

Alejandro Jodorowski

A Christlike 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. Together they seek the Holy Mountain, in order to displace the gods who live there and become immortal.

Jodorowsky's visual style comes to perfection in this surrealistic classic that is nothing short to the most exciting cinematographic experience you will ever have!

Arrow film made wonderful restorations of the Jodorowsky films and we are delighted to present this films that was an inspiration to this years main theme HOLY SHIT!

A student of computer science is working on a thesis about wikileaks, leaving his tutor wondering how he got all the classified information. The student digs deeper into the Deep Web, discovering a page in the hidden network called "The liberte". Violence and pornography he never hoped to have to witness cause a feeling of despair and depression to which he only sees one escape.
A minimalistic film that will leave no one unaffected - A MIDNIGHT EXTREME film from Mexico.

Live action

Roberta is a teenager with a strange malformation on her face that prevents her from fending for herself. Or at least that’s what her father, a retired, rather conservative surgeon who takes care of her, has made her believe. He creates a world within his home, making the girl believe that there are no normal people, only people with the same problem. He goes to extreme, bloody, lengths to ‘make’ some ‘friends’ for his daughter.
