Fando and his partially paralyzed lover Lis search for the mythical city of Tar. Based on Jodorowsky's adaptation of a play by surrealist Fernando Arrabal. Yup, it's that vague, but strangely moving. Whoever kicked away this guy's financial crutches was an enemy of mystic art! Alejandro Jodorowsky is considered a genius by many and a fraud by others, so please make your own mind up.

WHEN A WOMAN ASCENDS THE STAIRS (1960)
CertificationPG Our Rating

Sly, resourceful, but trapped, Keiko comes to embody the conflicts and struggles of a woman trying to establish her independence in a male-dominated society. A profoundly moving masterpiece.
