Get ready for a trip to the other side of the mirror. Screening Sunday. The legendary filmmaker Richard Stanley (HARDWARE, DUST DEVIL, THE THEATRE BIZARRE, and several stunning documentaries) has never hidden the fact that he studied mysticism and the occult. An anthropologist by training the brain is full of secret knowledge and forgotten stories, Stanley has spent decades exploring what is literally fantastic. In The Otherworld he takes us to  deep in the south of France, nearly hidden and virtually devoid of any aspect of the modern world. A place that many call "the zone" where we meet wizards, scholars and fools. We steal a rare glimpse not only the supernatural forces, but also many ways in which humanity strives to understand them. Metaluna Productions (French but g-translate works)
