“The Sensual World” – we stole the title from a Kate Bush song, where “arrows of desire rewrite the speech”. These films are a feast of hormones, fluids, bodies and movements. They will question your senses.
Try the Saltburn-meets-70s-witchcraft taste of The Hunters. Or would you prefer some dog food – made of male tears and anxiety – in Yummy? Become sand to be one with nature in Flow of Being. Reset what you know of your physical connection to the world in Jizai.
Get literally wired in 3MWH, where you learn how much electricity the human flesh can handle. Get lost in the tropical hall of the Dusseldorf Zoo and learn some reptilian wisdom in Crocodile Nest. And surrender to the moody tunes of Masterpiece Mommy – possibly the first musical ever where a mammogram lays down the rhythm.
Foreword by the programme curator: These films will overload your senses – smell, taste, touch, sight, hearing – without 3D or VR, in the bravest ways.
