Moon Flight

Moon Flight

Directed by Sándor Reisenbüchler • 1975 • Hungary

One of the finest examples of Sándor Reisenbüchler’s psychedelic take on animation, this cult classic short reimagines science fiction by way of sixties counterculture. Two scientists propose that the moon is in fact an ancient spaceship, and travel into deep space to test their theory – although the plot is less important here than Reisenbüchler’s virtuosic manipulation of layers of collage and striking original visuals to create a dreamlike vision of the cosmos.
