Sophie's Place (1986)
Directed by Larry Jordan
Overview
Five years in the making, Lawrence Jordan’s feature-length “alchemical autobiography” Sophie’s Place takes as its inspiration the story of the Greek goddess of wisdom, Sophia. Writes Jordan, “I must emphasize that I do not know the exact significance of any of the symbols in the film any more than I know the meaning of my dreams… I hope that the symbols and the episodes set off poetic associations in the viewer. I mean them to be entirely open to the viewer’s own interpretation.”
Length 79 minutes
