Further details:<\/p>\n

Kailash \u2013 Pilgrimage to The Throne of the Gods:\u00a0 <\/strong>The holiest mountain in Asia, in a far away corner of west Tibet, amidst wild and ragged landscape, nearly entirely cut off from the rest of the world, is called Kailash. For the pilgrims of four religions this 6675m high mountain is the \u2018throne of gods\u2019, or \u2018navel of the world\u2019 \u2013 a place where the divine takes an earthly shape. For thousands of years pilgrims have travelled to this place to worship the mystery of the mountain circumnavigating it on foot. The path around Kailash is an archaic \u2018path of initiation\u2019.<\/p>\n

Florian Fricke and filmmaker Frank Fiedler (also an original founding Popol Vuh member) made their own spiritual trek along this path and documented the journey. Accompanying epic landscape scenes in the film is the music of Florian Fricke and Popol Vuh, spiritual music inspired by this unique journey.<\/p>\n

This posthumous project has been put together with the full cooperation and assistance of Florian Fricke\u2019s family.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Werner Herzog:<\/strong>\u00a0\u2018Florian was always able to create music I feel helps audiences visualize something hidden in the images on screen, and in our own souls too.\u2019<\/em><\/p>\n
