OVERVIEW
The Cathedral of New Emotions | Helmut Herbst | Germany | 2006 | 60 minutes
Directed by Helmut Herbst, enjoy this surreal, psychedelic and truly cosmic animated feature following a commune of Berlin stoners and intellectuals who get set adrift in space in 1972. Various space flotsam smashes into the windshield paired along unusual noises. So begins our descent down the psychotic rabbit hole. The dialogue is equally bizarre, littered with cryptic sound bites. See the restored and released versions by Deaf Crocodile Films.
