“Having broken away from my illusory self, I was desperately seeking a path and a meaning to life.” This phrase perfectly sums up Alejandro Jodorowsky’s biographical project: reconstituting the incredible adventure of his life. Alejandro Jodorowsky was born in 1929 in Tocopilla, a coastal town on edge of the Chilean desert, where this film was shot. It was there where he discovered the fundamentals of reality, as he underwent an unhappy and alienated childhood as part of an uprooted family.

I have utmost respect for Jodorowsky, and this is proof that he is a fantastic story teller in addition to having an eye for visuals.

Jodorowsky is a master of powerful symbolic imagery, most of the scenes are burned into my mind and I only watched it once, many years ago.

Unorthodox aproach to story telling, but unique; unfolding like an adventure.

A Heartwarming, beautiful and surreal autobiography from a somewhat unreliable narrator. Well worth a look.
