"The complex, expertly constructed story involves a struggle for succession, a murder, and a demonic possession. The twists of the story kept me glued to the screen through several viewings; absolutely riveting and the cinematography is gorgeous. A stellar cast, the film's great depth and power will keep you thinking for a very long time." - David Finkelstein, filmthreat.com (4 stars)

Rated R. Nudity, sexual situations, language, drug use.
TO DREAM OF FALLING UPWARDS is a zany occult thriller.
The elder Magus of the Thelemic Temple of Horus has passed away. Jack Mason, a promising young sex magickian cultivated to advance the lineage, loses his status when the elder Magus' biological son inherits The Order through fraudulent means. Jack plots revenge and falls into a delirious maze of underworld encounters with professional psychopaths, desert brujas, and a twist of fate he never saw coming. Meanwhile, Jack assigns his two hot-headed apprentices the ego-corrosive ritual of going into business as clowns. TO DREAM OF FALLING UPWARDS explores the occult worlds of urban and rural sorcery with hilarity, insight, and suspense.
