The surreal “El Topo” follows the quest of a mystical man clad in black, traveling on horseback through the Mexican desert with a naked child. “El Topo” means the mole, which the movie says will go blind seeing the sun after a life digging tunnels underground. With Alejandro Jodorowsky as its director, writer, and star, the film became a cult classic.
