"My approach to art is that of the Egyptians, I want to work for eternity." (Kenneth Anger) The author of this book elucidates the iconographic sources that shape the fascinating imagery characteristic of the universe of Kenneth Anger. For this, Anger has highlighted the close relationship between the work of the filmmaker to the "magicks" writings of the English occultist Aleister Crowley. He was able to establish the true meaning of the mysterious symbols, strange rituals and hieratic characters that haunt this cinema. The reader will come to realize that he is facing a rigorous logic that offers another view of the world and assigns the greatest powers to cinema.
