"...a filmic portrait of secular rapture that harks back to the great annunciation canvases of Titian and Caravaggio." – Michael Sicinski, Green Cine Daily

The third part in a series of films dealing with naturally-derived psychedelia. Shot during a performance by Rhode Island noise band Lightning Bolt, this film documents the transformation of a rock audience’s collective freak-out into a trance ritual of the highest spiritual order.

 

Ben Russell, born in 1976. Ben Russell studied arts and semiotics at the Brown University and film and new media at the Art Institute in Chicago. He works as photographer, curator and experimental filmmaker. Ben Russell lives in Chicago.
