World Premiere
A clinical gaze inspects a liminal place beyond space and time, where living and dead bodies coexist. As they resist collapse, the unidentified shapes remain suspended in darkness.
In This Is Not an Autopsy, Spanish director Lucia Selva glimpses into a metaphysical void, proclaiming if I close my eyes long enough, I am there.
