The Sound of Insects: Record of a Mummy
2009 · 1 hr 27 mins
The incredible story of how the mummified corpse of a 40-year-old man was discovered by a hunter in one of the most remote parts of the country. The dead man's detailed notes reveal that he actually committed suicide through self-imposed starvation only the summer before. Liechti's film is a stunning rapprochement of a fictional text, which itself is based upon a true event: a cinematic manifesto for life, challenged by the main character's radical renunciation of life itself.
Director: Peter Liechti
Cast: Peter Mettler, Alexander Tschernek
