Portland visual artist Eatcho curates this month’s Blessings Movie Night with an original live score to SON OF THE WHITE MARE (1981) by local musicians.
A massive cosmic oak stands at the gates of the Underworld, holding seventy-seven dragons in its roots; to combat these monsters, a dazzling white mare goddess gives birth to three heroes—Treeshaker and his brothers—who embark on an epic journey to save the universe. One of the great psychedelic masterpieces of world animation, a swirling, color-mad maelstrom of mythic monsters and Scythian heroes, lit by jagged bolts of lightning and drenched in rivers of blue, red, gold and green.
Please note: This is not a typical screening. An improvised live score will accompany the film. Remember to be kind and chill.
