To Examine One's Self is this intriguing documentary that takes you into the often overlooked world of medical school anatomy classes. The tone is somber yet reflective, drawing you into the reality of students confronting mortality through their study of anonymous corpses. It has this raw atmosphere that captures the gravity of life and death, with pacing that ebbs and flows like the students' own emotional journeys. The practical effects are minimal but effective—no flashy gimmicks, just the stark reality of what they’re studying. The performances, if you can call them that, are the genuine reactions of students grappling with their future. It’s not your typical documentary; it’s more about the internal struggle and the philosophical questions that arise in the face of such a profound experience.
