Wannabes

This trashy animation movie about transgressive body perception was the result of a master class on boundaries by Cyrrus Frisch. It was created within the DasArts Block "The Glamour of Violence" mentored by Dutch filmmaker Boris Gerrets.

The text used is a compilation of fragments of interviews given in a BBC documentary on'Body Identity Integrity Disorder'
