Trailer & Synopsis
A black-clad gunslinger and mystic wanderer journeys through a surreal desert landscape, confronting a series of spiritual and moral trials as he seeks enlightenment and redemption. Blending Western tropes with esoteric symbolism, El Topo is a psychedelic allegory of violence, ego, and transformation. A favourite of John Lennon and Yoko Ono (who went on to partially fund Jodorowsky's follow up, The Holy Mountain), this legendary cult film was credited with starting the Midnight Movie phenomenon and firmly established Alejandro Jodorowsky as the master of the outrageous and the profound.
