The Lemurian Candidate screening and conversation with Alien Afterparty

Two friends take their troubled buddy on a Mt. Shasta backpacking trip to reconnect. But when he upends their plans with a stash of hallucinogens and a wild theory, their weekend on the trail spirals into a surreal quest for meaning… and contact with alien beings.

The Lemurian Candidate is a genre‑bending, psychedelic dramedy that collides a buddy road movie (on a hiking trail) with mind‑bending sci‑fi comedy. The film blends irreverent humor with a deeply personal core about mental health, grief, and the bonds that connect us to one another, even when reality starts to wobble.

“Some of the best psychedelic sequences I’ve seen in a film or TV show.” — Letterboxd review

The Lemurian Candidate team will be on hand with a alien abduction photobooth, merch pop-up and we'll host a conversation about the filmmaking experience after the film.

Following the film and cast and crew conversation, we'll be dancing and getting down with our Alien Afterparty!
