About
An alchemist gathers a thief and people representing the planets for a journey to a holy mountain.
The Holy Mountain opens with a man who resembles Jesus Christ, later identified as The Thief (Horacio Salinas), lying in the desert. A footless, handless dwarf befriends him, and the pair go into the city and earn money entertaining tourists. Because the thief looks like Christ, a nun and three warriors make an impression of his body and sell crucifixes. After a dispute with a priest, he eats the face from his statue and sends it up with balloons. He notices a crowd at a tall tower, where a hook has brought down a bag of gold in exchange for food. He climbs the tower and meets The Alchemist (Alejandro Jodorowsky) and his silent assistant.
The Alchemist gathers people who represent the planets and prepares them for a journey to Lotus Island and the Holy Mountain.
