Corpus Homini

About this title

The human body might perhaps be thoroughly researched—but its needs and the hardships it endures often remain a mystery. Anatol Bogendorfer observes four basic principles of physical existence using the examples of a midwife, a family doctor, a sex worker, and an undertaker couple. With unembellished realism and respectful distance, he submerges in the working world and documents the becoming, dysfunctions, and sexual needs in this world. And the final farewell to it.
