Disc 1
. Car Cemetery (Le CimitiÃ©re des Voitures) 1983
Combining punk rock and post-apocalyptic mayhem, Arrabal”s outrageous adaptation of his infamous 1958 stage play is a gallows-humor romp in a wretched dystopia. A raucous and absurd retelling of the Christ story with thugs, murderers, pimps and punks. Car Cemetery is one of Fernando Arrabal”s most rare and wanted films.
Disc 2
. The Emperor of Peru (L”Empereur du PÃ©rou) 1982
A charming and phantasmagoric children”s film, The Emperor of Peru stars Mickey Rooney. Rarely seen outside of a brief theatrical run and a long out-of-print videocassette release, The Emperor of Peru returns to thrill families and art film buffs alike.
Disc 3
. Farewell, Babylon! (Adieu, Babylon!) 1992
Arrabal”s 6th film is based on his 1969 novel of the same title and features Leila Fischer and Spike Lee.

A documentary film on one of Arrabal”s greatest influences, the Brazilian writer Jorge Luis Borges, featuring the last interview before his death.
. Arrabal: Panik Cineast (Arrabal CinÃ©aste Panique) 2007
A documentary that captures the adventurous spirit and outrageous creations of Europe”s most infamous surrealist, Fernando Arrabal. Featuring Alejandro Jodorowsky.
