Space Is The Place (1974)

This wacky film features Sun Ra and his Arkestra. They also provide the jazzy soundtrack which is an integral part of the film. While the movie doesn't exactly make a lot of sense, there is a sliver of plot that you can hold on to.

It seems that Sun Ra and the Devil have some sort of bet. There is a running tally through-out the film of who is ahead. I believe that Sun Ra is trying to get various members of the black community to go back with him to his planet so that he can save the black race. I could be wrong in all this.

The version I watched is the restored director's cut that includes scenes of loose women having sex that seem to have not much to do with narrative. Sun Ra supposedly had these scenes cut when the film was originally released.
