Fando y Lis

Alejandro Jodorowsky’s debut feature is a confrontational and uncompromising study of obsessive love and emotional cruelty. The film follows two tormented lovers on a bleak journey toward a mythical destination, their bond marked by anguish, dependency, and volatility. Its shocking, grotesque imagery ignited riots at its 1968 premiere at the Acapulco Film Festival and led to the film’s subsequent ban in Mexico. This meticulous restoration, supervised by Jodorowsky and sourced from the original 35mm negative, presents the film in its most pristine version to date.
