To promote visionary sci-fi, the kind you see in the works of Philip K Dick, Ray Bradbury, Heinlein, Ursula Le Guin, Jorge Luis Borges, Sam Delany, or the cinematic visions of Stanley Kubrick, Darren Aranofsky, Ridley Scott and other great directors

We are looking for dark, moody, strange, cerebral, off the beaten path independent sci-fi one that provokes and engages our sense of awe and curiosity. Other themes include magical realism, cult, strange, the supernatural and the eerie. We look at visionary experiences, psychedelic breakthroughs, DMT, explore Terence Mckenna, William Boroughs, and J.G. Ballard. This is about pushing the realm of science fiction to all whole new reality.

We look at films that push the cinematic form to new levels of expression. Experimental ...great.. avant guard
