Sam Clements is curating a fictional film festival. He'll accept almost anything, but the movie must not be longer than 90 minutes. This is the 90 Minutes Or Less Film Fest podcast.
In episode 118 Sam is joined by artist and illustrator Murugiah.
Murugiah has chosen Jodorowsky's Dune (90 mins). Directed by Frank Pavich, the 2013 documentary follows Alejandro Jodorowsky's attempt to make a film adaptation of Frank Herbert's classic sci-fi novel Dune.
Sam and Murugiah discuss how Jodorowsky gathered his 'spiritual warriors' to work on the project, how not making the movie became a huge influence on sci-fi cinema - from Ridley Scott's Alien to much much more - and how seeing Jodorowsky's El Topo changed Murugiah's life.
