Movie

The Body Dissolver

The film is based on interviews with professional boxers recalling the moment they were knocked out. The Film combines documentary and fictional elements into a dense parafiction, tinted with body horror genre. Unreal 3D animations generated by the artist are confronted with found footage and the images of human bodies with the representations of imaginary, hyperbolic machines. The storyline reveals the recurring fantasies about the abandonment of the body and the visions of ecstasy, exploited in various spiritual discourses and pop-culture alike.
