Abstract or Description: | An imaginative film about the digestive process as a condition for our physical existence - and as a prism for an intellectual journey through the cultural history of the body. Artist couple Sasha Litvintseva & Beny Wagner are back at CPH:DOX with an original, visionary and unpredictable film work that deals with something as immediately fundamental as digestion. ‘My Want of You Partakes of Me’ examines digestion as the fundamental condition of being in the world – but also as a process with physiological, psychological, spiritual, literary and scientific dimensions. Parallel stories trace the poetics of incorporation as a question of metamorphosis and decay, philosophy of matter and imperial conquest, industrialisation and destruction, poetry and parenthood, love and citation. |
