AQUARIUS RISING - A FILM BY PIERRE SOGOL

Info:

This hour and a half documentary film, also known as 'The Second Coming, 1967 A.D.' or 'The Scene', was shot in 1967 in various locations around California, and released in 1968. The film includes various footage related to The Doors, including a shot of an Elektra Billboard during the 1967 Sunset Strip riots, a venue marquee and brief footage of The Doors at the Cheetah in August 1967, footage of The Doors performing at the Shrine Exposition Hall, and an illustrated schedule from the Fantasy Fayre (Jul. 15th-16th, 1967). Native audio does not appear to have been recorded for this film, however it does make use of I Looked At You and The End. Original film sources are yet to be uncovered, however a poor quality VHS review tape of a 1992-93 re-edit by the films director, Pierre Sogol, is known to collectors. The whereabouts of the director, whose real name may be Fredrick Wolf, and the master filmwork, are currently unknown.
