Begotten
Begotten is the creation myth brought to life, the story of no less than the violent death of God and the (re)birth of nature on a barren earth.
The story concerns a man bound to death and a young girl, following a path of ritualistic transfiguration to ultimately become completely free as dead. A frightening tale of evil excess, demented sorcery and lurid ritual. An original experimental short horror film presenting a voyage into the darkest and most psychedelic nether regions of the subconscious.
