The Chilean-French filmmaker and mystic Alejandro Jodorowsky is the director behind cult western El Topo, the John Lennon backed The Holy Mountain and first attempts to film Frank Herbert’s Dune. He is a prolific creator of comics, many illustrated by Moebius, and an authority on Tarot and other spiritual systems.
British author and psychogeographer Iain Sinclair interviewed Alejandro Jodorowsky in London in September 2014, exploring Jodorowsky’s return to cinema (The Dance of Reality), his therapeutic method known as “psychomagic,” and his graphic novels.
