This Month's Public Screening: "Org"

For this month's Living Archive public screening on March 14, we will be viewing Fernando Birri's ORG (Italy/Argentina 1978, 35mm, 177'). The film, starring Terence Hill, is considered as one of the most radical experimental films of all time. Birri himself classified it as his "dark opus magnum", which took him more than ten years to work on. The plot of the narrative portion of the film is partially based on Thomas Mann's "The Transposed Heads" which itself is based on Indian mythology.
