Alejandro Jodorowsky (1929- )


Eccentric and unique, Jodorowsky's ideas are innovative and bestial, shattering the context's paradigm into fine little pieces. He defies the laws of normality and human morale. In his world he welcomes monsters with deformed faces and indefinite body structures, he welcomes the monsters of human's universal feelings and superficiality. Even though he has a short career in the film industry and lacks a formal film education, Jodorowsky is an acomplished cult filmmaker who has built a strong bond of loyalty with his followers. 

"Most directors make films with their eyes; I make films with my testicles." A. Jodorowsky
