“We invite you to participate in the production of the film “La Danza de la Realidad,” directed by Alejandro Jodorowsky, Chilean artist and movie director. 

Alejandro Jodorowsky is renowned worldwide as one of the most important creators in several disciplines in the last decades. His work as a writer (poet and playwright), philosopher, screenplay writer, actor, mime, puppeteer, movie director, tarot instructor, painter, and psychomagician (therapy created by himself) places him on a level which is different to the norm, with his imagination being the meeting point for all his work.

Here’s Jodorowsky’s explanation: “…Active imagination is the key to a broad vision: it enables to focus on life from angles that are not ours, imagining other levels of higher conscience…”

The movie project called “La Danza de la Realidad” is based on the first part of its imaginary autobiography (book of the same name). “Imaginary” is used here not in the sense of “fictitious,” because all the characters, places, and events are true, but in the sense that the underlying story of his life is a constant effort to expand imagination and broaden its limits, in order to apprehend it in its therapeutic and transforming potential.

Thus, the production will show his experiences during the first years of his life in Tocopilla, a small town in northern Chile.

The director explains the project like this:  “We are going to place Tocopilla in orbit around the world. I say it very humbly: the world will be paying attention to La Danza de la Realidad.”

This dossier will discuss the different factors that make this a unique opportunity, highlighting its true cultural potential. Our objective is, therefore, to present its key aspects so that your participation in this project is the result of an informed and willing decision.” (http://www.ladanza.cl/en)
