Director: Frank Pavich | Cast: Alejandro Jodorowsky, Michael Seydoux and H.R Giger.
2014 \ 90min \ USA/France \ NC16 (Consumer advice: Some nudity & drug references)

This fascinating documentary explores the genesis of one of cinema’s greatest epics that never was: cult filmmaker Alejandro Jodorowsky’s (El Topo) adaptation of Frank Herbert’s sci-fi classic Dune, whose cast would have included such icons as Salvador Dali, Orson Welles and Mick Jagger. Director Frank Pavich tackles one of cinema’s most enthralling “what could have been” stories.

Even though the project exists only in the imaginations of its creators, and as the hundreds of illustrations they left behind, Pavich’s documentary chooses not to dwell on failure, but rather celebrates the ways in which the creative dreams of Dune planted seeds for many other iconic films that came after it, from Star Wars to Alien and countless more. This is an inspirational story about the power of the creative spirit, one that establishes Jodorowsky as a master of cinema and a true visionary of our time!
