With commentary from British poet and playwright Adrian Mitchell, THE BODY was highly innovative for its first use of internal cameras. Own this unique time capsule on 7 October, RRP £9.99.

Made in 1970 this remarkable study of the human body is neither scientific nor medical; it is, rather, a deeply intimate feature-length film exploring the physical experience of being human. The use of internal cameras - allow an unprecedented insight into the body’s functions; these visuals are beautifully complemented by a soundtrack by Pink Floyd’s Roger Waters and pioneering composer, Ron Geesin.
