Diagnosis

About This Movie

The pacing is contemplative, allowing viewers to linger on the intricacies of the human body, much like the stillness found in Rembrandt’s 'Anatomy Lesson.' The atmosphere is heavy, thought-provoking, and at times profoundly unsettling. The film has an almost meditative quality, exploring themes of mortality and the human condition. It's distinctive in its rawness, with practical effects that emphasize the stark realities of medical science, making it both educational and deeply reflective.

Finding a good copy of Diagnosis can be a bit of a hunt due to its limited releases over the years.
