Fakir Musafar was more than an artist – he was a visionary who saw the body as a canvas, an expression of identity and freedom.
In „A Body to Live In“, Angelo Madsen Minax opens a window into the world of this pioneer of body modification and queer subculture. With a mix of personal stories, archival footage, and reflections, the film shows how Fakir repeatedly broke boundaries – physically, socially, and artistically.
This film is a tribute to the right to shape one‘s own body autonomously and an invitation to celebrate the power of being different.
