A Film, My Body
“A Film, My Body is a mix of digital and analogue experimental video essay, touching on philosophical topics of film phenomenology extrapolated to the human body.”
2025•23m•Released
Documentary
The interconnection between the philosophical film body and the trans human body is explored through the film’s materiality and the use of analogue techniques. In a deeply personal investigation, parallels are drawn between the procedures both bodies must undertake to reach their final form.
