De humani corporis fabrica

De humani corporis fabrica

Five centuries ago, anatomist André Vésale opened the human body to science for the first time. De Humani Corporis Fabrica opens up the human body on the silver screen, with micro-cameras that reach places in our body that could not be captured before. Our human flesh turns out to be an imposing landscape that exists through the gaze and attention of others. This film, from the makers of Leviathan (2012), offers a challenging, groundbreaking look at and in our own bodies.
