Raoul Ruiz and Alexandre Jodorowski have questioned the cultural text of the colonization of America in their films. The first one, in The Suspended Vocation, by the demolition of a theological part of speech which tended to legitimize the conquista and its consequences; the second, in The Holy Mountain, by a shaping mise en abyme, who brings into conflict, as a bloody fight, toads representing conquistadores, and chameleons represented the Indians. In these two movies, the political meaning of the narrative comes along with a demolition of this one, associated with a particular form of iconoclasm, which constitutes a questioning of the initial cultural text and its representation in images. These directors at the same time revisit a second cultural text, that of the life as a dream and of the theatrum mundi, which also questions the reality of the image. Finally, this destruction allows a transfer of the sacred to the art; the ruizian shamanism and the jodorowskian syncretism tending to be substituted for the Christian religious imaging.
