A good look and feel is important, but sometimes, you need a boost.

"Holy Mountain", how to say, curious, weird, uncomfortable, obscure but with philosophy behind it, a movie that I don't regret but would not recommend. The main line of the film is the bizarre sightings experienced by a group of people on the way to find the holy mountain. The director magnifies and ugliness various illusions of human society and presents them on the screen through his own whimsy. Religion, war, sex, business, art, money... When you worship everything that is psychedelic, you are put on an ugly veil, as if you were awakened from a dream, and you can see the truth again. Good looks are important, but they are hallucinogenic drugs, and sometimes, you need a booster.

    The surreal pictures are all over the screen, but they are so beautiful and full of imagination; heavy taste scenes can be seen everywhere, but they will be uncontrollable and full of fun. When he was overwhelmed by the illusory scene created by Zodorovsky and regarded it as a sacred existence, he zoomed out and smashed the glass separating the illusion of the movie from the audience. The illusion that had been created before was immediately disillusioned. What has become a real reality in the picture, then what have we become?

    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

    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.
