‘De Humani Corporis Fabrica': Fascinating Doc is an Uncompromising Look at Human Anatomy [Capsule]

April 10, 2023 Jordan Ruimy

Focusing on five hospitals in northern Paris, Verena Paravel & Lucien Castaing-Taylor’s “De Humani Corporis Fabrica” is not for the faint of heart. It wasn’t a coincidence either that this doc screened at Cannes on the same day as Cronenberg’s “Crimes of the Future” — both films are graphic explorations of the body. Paravel & Castaing-Taylor‘s tackling of the human anatomy will makes your jaw drop. This non-fiction statement is about modern medical science and the power of the cinematic eye, seeing the human body, via peculiar surgical innovations, in a way almost none of us ever get to see it. This is an uncompromising and explicit look at the elements that give us life and our inevitable decay. The extraordinary landscape of the human flesh. From birth to death, if you stick with this movie, and there will be plenty who don’t, it could turn out to be a life-changing experience. [A-]
