The Holy Mountain
A collection of adventures in the film's story where people have abandoned their quest for the sacred mountain and instead engage in drugs, poetry, or craftwork. Leave behind them, climb the mountain. Each has a personal symbolic vision that represents his worst fears and anxieties. The rest are confronted by the immortal, hidden, who appear to be mere dolls without a face.

So loaded with symbols and religious references that the frames of the films flash by as if Jodorowsky were shuffling a deck of his beloved tarot cards...

This is an extraordinary visual concoction, loaded with stunning primary colors, anti-religious caricatures drawn from Diego Rivera and a succession of dreamlike, grotesque vistas worthy of Dalí at his most deranged.
