He gained recognition for the versatility of his craft, having created milestones of Mexican cinema in almost every important genre, especially, crime and comedy. 5.30 pm Endless Poetry Dir: Alejandro Jodorowsky (Chile/2016/128 mins/Colour) Endless Poetry tells the story of the director’s years spent as an aspiring poet in Chile in the 1940`s. Against the wishes of his authoritarian father, the 20 year old Jodorowsky leaves home to pursue his dream of becoming a poet and is introduced into the bohemian and artistic inner circle of Santiago. Endless Poetry is an ode to the quest for beauty and inner truth, as a universal force capable of changing one`s life forever told through Jodorowsky`s cinematic language. Alejandro Jodorowsky (b. 1929) is a Chilean born French film maker known for his surrealist films.
