The Perfect Human

Based on wishful thinking this film directs its spotlights at 'the perfect man', who could be a perfect role model for the liberal Dane who is driven by a desire for ultimate beauty. The film reflects the zeitgeist of the sixties not only in its subject, but also in its search for a new cinematic language. The main character is played by Claus Nissen, who appears in many films by Jorgen Leth and who is used by the filmmaker as his alter ego. (International Documentary Film Festival Amsterdam)
