The Prophet of Hunger
1970·1h 33m·6.8/ 10·12 votes
“Hunger is a plague and he is the host.”
The story of a fakir who works in a decadent circus. He and his colleagues do weirder numbers each day to attract audience, and warrant their survival. The numbers resemble a horror-show and they get marginalized. Through fable and allegory, reality turns stronger and stronger, and more absurd.
