holy mountain that doesn't exist

A good alternative movie, full of sex, violence, greed, all kinds of unscrupulous and evil elements. Especially when I saw the golden shit, I almost didn't spit it out.

I didn't understand the movie very well, but my understanding: some scenes seem to be a satire of society, such as tourists taking pictures, female workers and big capitalists occupying production lines, women producing war toys...

Later, the nine people seem to be escaping from the evil reality, Looking for the ideal holy mountain, I want a correct guide to help them make changes and bring changes to the world.

But in the last scene, the teacher said that there is no holy mountain at all, any religion in the world is "unreal", go back, or return to the real life.

    1. Each country expresses different surrealist films. Antonioni, Bertolucci, Pasolini, and Fellini in his later years show the colors of Renaissance art and pursue the resonance of the soul. Sergey , Yang Suo, Nowitzki, Tarkovsky, Sizhe, and Tar, expressed surrealism more literary, poetic, with a sense of the times and history, while the East is more mysterious and has a far-reaching artistic conception. Indescribable, Latin America pays attention to the expression of form, with strong magical colors, and the large-scale design makes the film have a strong impact. Everything is being criticized, everything is being resolved, the pursuit is never-ending, even if you don’t get the result of greed, you will get the true face of life

    From the chaotic apocalypse of the cult atmosphere → to the pilgrimage in search of the ultimate wisdom → to the camera behind the camera is the humorous enlightenment of the end of the image and the return of the dream to reality. Pasolini and Bunuel’s spirit possession, the complex intentions can be said to be the best of the past and the present, politics, society, religion (gossip, alchemy, tai chi, holy land), biology, sexual desire, rights, and elements. A movie fan gave up watching the movie and chose to return to the last movie of life

The Holy Mountain quotes

  • Lut, He whose planet is Pluto: [vomits] His feet stink.

    The Alchemist: He has beautiful feet.

    Lut, He whose planet is Pluto: I can't stand the smell!

    The Alchemist: [attacks Lut, breaking his legs] When he puts your bones back together, you will like his smell!

  • The Alchemist: [final lines] We began in a fairytale and we came to life, but is this life reality? No. It is a film. Zoom back camera.

    [camera zooms out, revealing equipment and crew]

    The Alchemist: We are images, dreams, photographs. We must not stay here. Prisoners! We shall break the illusion. This is Maya! Goodbye to the Holy Mountain. Real life awaits us.
