MB C @MB.Cinema Dec 24 An extreme, confrontational hybrid of documentary, opera, and performance art....River of Fundament uses Norman Mailer’s funeral as a gateway into cycles of death, rebirth, and industrial decay....The film abandons traditional narrative in favor of rituals, symbols, and relentless bodily imagery.....Its ambition is undeniable, merging the human body, American industry, and myth into a single vision....The nearly six hour runtime and abrasive symbolism make it exhausting and deliberately alienating.....Provocative and uncompromising, it feels less like a film and more like an endurance ritual.....

See more 04/10/2016 The best film I've seen all year, and will probably remain so for the year considering how much of an epic, enjoyable achievement this film is. Extremely glad I caught it at my local theatre on it's roadshow-esque run. Beautiful cinematography, beautiful music, and epic story. See more Read all reviews
