YBCA presents Le Lit de la Vierge (The Virgin’s Bed) August 24, 2008

The Stoned Apocalypse
A look at different approaches to extreme states of consciousness through experiments with light, music, drugs or even filmmaking.

LE LIT DE LA VIERGE (THE VIRGIN’S BED)
BY PHILIPPE GARREL
A shipping error prevented us from showing Philippe Garrel’s extraordinary film in its intended format for a screening this past May, so we’ve rescheduled it. LE LIT DE LA VIERGE is a minimalist, psychedelic retelling of the Christ story, shot in Brittany, Morocco and Rome under the influence of LSD and in stunning black-and-white Cinemascope. Don’t miss it.
