About this work
Description
The third in a four-part series which takes the viewer on a graphic journey through the human body. The series is hosted by anatomist Gunther von Hagens and pathologist Professor John Lee. It is filmed at the Institute for Plastination in Germany and contains highly graphic dissection scenes presented in a pseudo-theatrical format in front of an audience made up of potential future body donors and anatomy students. This third part involves the dissection of a corpse to examine the digestive system in some detail. We follow the course of a piece of fake food as it enters the mouth and is eventually expelled from the anus.
