Trivia
This is the second of the five memoirs Alejandro Jodorowsky plans to shoot, the first one being The Dance of Reality (2013).

Goofs
Alejandro leaves his parents and moves in with the two girls in the 1940's. You can see a Terracotta Army sculpture in the corner of his room, but the Terracotta Army was only discovered on 29 March 1974. However, both this and The Dance of Reality (2013) have anachronisms on purpose.

Quotes
Alejandro: I have sold my devil to the soul!

Crazy credits
During the end credits, there's a message for everyone who contributed to the Kickstarter campaign. Then, a scene from the movie is re-shown.

The most beautiful film in Cannes and Locarno

There is no doubt that Poesía Sin Fin represents the highest and most astounding manifestation of Jodorowsky's cinematic work.

The Film is a pure, honest and unpretentious expression of the director's youth. It is a journey which takes us by the hand and invites us to see the world differently, through the eyes of the poet ; for whom the possibility of a Life filled with drive, desire, wonder and ultimately, freedom, liberated him from the person he was not.

A must-see masterpiece rich with many many layers of interpretation ; from the most naive youth-driven imaginary to the deepest most mature form of reflection and expression.

Cinema that heals, cinema that explores, cinema that inspires, truly and deeply.
