Gambling, Gods and LSD - Poster

Gambling, Gods and LSD

Synopsis:

Calgary Cinematheque Presents: Gambling, Gods and LSD (2002)


From an airport mega-church where a pastor performs flamboyant feats of faith-healing to poncho-clad crowds gathering to witness the implosion of a Vegas hotel; from recovering Swiss addicts reviewing their lives’ winding paths to spontaneous sacred encounters with strangers in India; Swiss-Canadian nonfiction auteur Peter Mettler’s most emblematic work is a rigorously associative travelogue, traversing diverse continents and landscapes, spiritual convictions and psychological states. 

Transcendence is the core theme, prepared improvisation the modus operandi. Whether flying solo or accompanied by a skeleton crew, Mettler’s capacity to be fully present, his gentle approach to interlocution, and his uncanny antenna for eccentricity draw in a stream of fascinating characters ready to articulate their longing for the infinitely varied sublime. A film of arrivals and departures, this Genie-winning, intuition-fuelled essay on peak experience is a peak in Mettler’s oeuvre and should be on any list of the greatest Canadian films ever made.

Genre: Documentary

Director: Peter Mettler
Stars: Justine Bellinsky, Govinda, Peter Mettler                 
Running time: 3 hr 00 min
