A Trip to the Other Planet

Directed by: Tom Kless
15 Minutes, 2014

An animated portrait of the hallucinatory journey of consciousness experienced by Jewish writer Yechiel De-Nur (“KaTzetnik 135633”), during a psychiatric treatment with the hallucinate drug LSD, in the Netherlands, 1976. The treatment sends De-Nur to revisit the “Other Planet” of Auschwitz, during which, De-Nur sees himself as the Nazi officer who sent him to burn in the crematorium. This life-altering experience releases De-Nur from his repressed traumas of the past, and engulfs him with new prophecies of a dark possible future.
