The Sky is Falling

1975 · 90 min

A disorienting, hallucinatory descent into addiction and cultish dread, slow and surreal, leaving a lingering sense of decay and unease.

Overview: Chicken, a desperate hippie junkie living in a small Spanish village, is finding it difficult to separate fantasy and reality. This isn't helped by the villagers practising magic and child sacrifice, or his involvement with a group of boozy expatriates lost in their own dreams and regrets.
How it feels: Dark, eerie, melancholic and absurd. Slow-burning and demanding.
About: Addiction, madness, isolation, death
Content: Strong violence, gore and sexual content. Mild language.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
