In this film I seek to adapt Lewis Carroll’s story, which served also as a criticism to Victorian society in nineteenth century England, to a criticism of nowadays society; specially youth. In the film Alice sees herself in an LSD trip and as the acid’s effect of delirium go by her problems are pictured in a most bizarre way.
