Tickets $15. Welcome to Surreal Summer: a dreamlike, boundary-pushing film series where reality melts at the edges, time loops in on itself, and cinema slips into the subconscious. Across hallucinatory classics and mind-bending modern visions, we’ll wander through strange landscapes, fractured identities, and worlds where the impossible feels oddly familiar. And who better to kick things off than surrealist mastermind Alejandro Jodorowsky. With El Topo, Jodorowsky created the definitive cult “acid western,” a midnight movie that helped define underground cinema in the 1970s. Blending mysticism, spiritual allegory, and psychedelic imagery, El Topo turns the Western into a hypnotic desert quest for enlightenment.
