Movies by Simon Pummell

Bodysong
Documentary footage from various sources, set to music. Showing the whole of human life, from birth to death and beyond.
Surface Tension
Intercutting live action footage with animation, a depiction of the possible memories, repressions and fears of the leading character. The animated sections are monologues by a male figure drawn to highlight the tension between rigid and fluid body structures, skeleton and flesh.

Butcher's Hook
A short film exploring the imagery of medical and scientific experimentation.

Identicals
Identicals is a highly unconventional romantic thriller: an obsessive love story stripped down and re-arranged into the looping logic of a nightmare.
Temptation of Sainthood
The story of a man who believed God was changing him into a woman so he could save the world.

Secret Joy of Falling Angels
A re-telling of the annunciation story which blurs the sacred and the profane. The film combines many different optical film techniques with an exploration of drawing the human body which breeds Mickey Mouse with Michelangelo.
