Official Mr Bongo Publicity

Martin Scorsese, Francis Ford Coppola, and Mr Bongo Films Present the full length version of Wojciech Has' masterpiece film “The Saragossa Manuscript”. A film described at various time by Martin Scorsese, Francis Ford Coppola, Luis Bunuel and Jerry Garcial as their favorite film.

Enter a dazzling, mysterious world of the supernatural courtesy of The Saragossa Manuscript, a magical text discovered during the Napoleonic Wars by a pair of opposing soldiers. Capt. Alphonse van Worden lives out the book's intricate, devilish storylines as he embarks on a journey across scenic Spain, now populated with ghosts, alluring demons, debauched royalty, and mystical priests. Spanning centuries and nations, the Manuscript's reach encompasses a wide array of stories both humorous and horrifying, gleeful and grotesque, before the final chilling revelations bring this one of a kind book to a close. Critically applauded and embraced by such admirers as Jerry Garcia, Francis Ford Coppola, and Martin Scorsese, this swirling tapestry has been restored to its original, full length director's cut with all of its labyrinthine riddles intact.

Director: Wojchiech Has
