Here is the info on the film:
In the mid-1990's, Terence MKnenna and Mystic Fire's Sheldon Rochlin teamed up to make this rich and exciting feature. Little did they know that this would be their last film. Sheldon's stepson, Morgan Harris has spent the last few years finishing this film. Filmed in Prague with Terence portraying his usual erudite rendition of the Irish Bard, this filmed classic takes us on a journey into the alchemical renaissance of King Frederick V and his wife, Queen Elizabeth of Bohemia. Playing the role of John Dee, court magician for Queen Elizabeth of England, Terence McKenna shows us how the promise of a return to the tradition of alchemy was almost instituted in Europe. He also shows us that this early attempt at the creation of an alchemical kingdom actually led to the further flowering of the European Renaissance, the institution of Cartesian science and the beginnings of rationalism within the western mindset. This incredible feature documentary is not only beautifully filmed, but is Terence McKenna's finest performance and a worthy eulogy to his genius.
