1973 Mexican surreal-fantasy film directed by and starring Alejandro Jodorowsky.

Jodorowsky's flood of sacrilegious imagery and existential symbolism in the The Holy Mountain is a spiritual quest for enlightenment pitting illusion against truth.

The central character, The Alchemist assembles together a group of people from all walks of life to represent the planets in the solar system.

The occult adept’s intention is to put his recruits through strange mystical rites and divest them of their worldly baggage before embarking on a trip to Lotus Island. There, they ascent the Holy Mountain to displace the immortal gods who secretly rule the universe.
