Movie profile

Out of Body

A poetic and psychedelic journey, tracing flows of waste materials across species boundaries, in and out of hum/animal bodies through sites of scientific control. Oscillating between poetry, documentary, and reenactment, the film slips between the cracks of industrial spaces; below ground, across membranes, factory walls and into orifices and hidden worlds of work. The film is woven together by a series of poems performed by Logan February in which borrowed language accumulates. Sourced from different fields these lyrical experiments refer to fluid dynamics, spirituality, medical history, psychoanalysis and reproductive science.
