This short film by Marina and Alessio Pierro was inspired by the way that Walerian Borowczyk would project photographs and drawings onto a transparent screen, the dust and and smoke-filled light becoming an almost tangible part of the experience. A 'Himorogi' is a sacred space or altar, and this one pays homage to Borowczyk's visionary cinema.

Don't listen to the negative reviews

Borgarkeri

A bit overrated, but still an amazing film

Humaira Grant

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Himorogi (2012) *** (out of 4) Alessio and Marina Pierro made this seventeen-minute short film as a homage to director Walerian Borowczyk whom Marina worked with several times. This film was meant to pay respect to the various visual styles that Borowczyk brought to his movies and for the most part I'd call it a success. If you're looking for some sort of story then you're really not going to find one because this is one of those films were there are just a bunch of images and I personally didn't draw any sort of story from it. It's worth nothing that the movie is exceptionally beautiful to look at as the images are really captured perfectly with the great cinematography. The music score by Borowczyk regular Bernard Parmegiani is also excellent and it turned out to be his final work.
