VISCERA: AUTOPY OF A NO HUMAN BODY
Arturo Bandinelli
UK | 2022 | 12′ | fiction
Viscera: Autopsy of a (non)human Body is an experimental dance film exploring the relationship between time, memory and trauma. In the autopsy of a once grand Hotel in the middle of the ocean, we catch a glimpse of the past, faded memories, blurred details. In the past, each room had its own function, but as living took its toll, it soon became a storage place for lost memories. Viscera oscillates between clear defined choreography and abstract movement to offer a viscerally moving, and at times disconcerting encounters with that which cannot be put into words.
