Perdurabo film
By Psyche | April 28, 2008
While we’re on the subject of films featuring Aleister Crowley, ((See “[cref 156]” and “[cref 161]“.) I thought I’d mention a trailer I recently stumbled across for Perdurabo, a short 40 minute film which will form the first part of a feature-length movie.
The film was written and directed by independent Spanish film maker Carlos Atanes and stars Manuel Solàs as Aleister Crowley.
The English on Atanes’ website, Wikipedia entry and IMDB film synopsis is awkward, and all sources lack specific details on the film’s contents.
In time of Mussolini, a mysterious man travels to Sicily looking for famous British magician Aleister Crowley. But when he arrives, he discovers that Crowley has vanished, and into the Abbey of Thelema (the Abbey where people does his True Will) the confusion and the despair reigns. During his stay, he’ll knows the Sexual Magick principles and the thelemic way of life.

Sorcerers seem to have the ability to vanish at will. They grasp how to raise their vibratation to levels that transcend the human-perceived time-space continuum.
Any attempt to portray this on film is a perspective that invites reflection, but it would have to differ from reality.
I’m not sure I understand?
Its always interesting to see how directors portray sorcery on screen. With technology and special effects at their disposal, the options are increasing. The visual componet undestood by film spectators may be different from what a sorcerer experiences in reality.
