In Corpore

This film took me back to my youth, 4 tales that were very relatable in your prime, love fidelity family future all rolled into this film. It also transported me to the 80's with that late night sbs feel with the multicultural mix and subtitles. I will say I was a bit iffy at the start but then it just evolved and drew you in. I enjoyed the film, it's not a Hollywood blockbuster but it is an original and you can see the effort of the cast and crew in it. My rating is high because Aussies make films that are different to the main stream and they have something other than $$$ behind them, it's called passion!!!!

This lacklustre collection appears to be more an opportunistic grab to travel the world creating a sequence of short stories with precisely zero consequence. Each attempts (rather pathetically, I must add) to portray drama and conflict, but each fails miserably.

Acting is for the most part mediocre, but it's difficult to tell if it was entirely the actors' fault or if more of the blame should lay with the script and direction. The inclusion of graphic sex scenes did precisely nothing to add to the worth of each story - maybe it was just an attempt to bring pubescent teenagers into the viewership?

If you have nothing better to do and you've already watched every other movie known to mankind, it might be worth a viewing - but be warned, you'll be reaching for the fast-forward button VERY frequently.

What to look for? some superb performance and some beautifully pictured intimate scene..? In Corpore has promising plot but lacks in depth. four stories, which are narrated individually one after another includes love, lust, family values , infidelity and emotions. relationship sours not only when infidelity occurs, but also when one's urge to achieve personal goal, and whatever the modern open mind we had, finally emotion and possessiveness rules- these things are neatly explained. if You used to watch these kind of movies, It's Ok for You, otherwise, You might get bored. 6 out of 10 is my score, and watch count yours.

One might think some stories are a bit over the top, but well, life might sometimes have even been weirder, we just don't see it later on film. So again, really awsome acting,bravo, because bear in mind it's apparently all improvised when I read some info correctly, or at least like in a theather, one-go-one-shot.

Shows how forced exclusivity and jealousy disturb/corrode/kill relationships which otherwise could turn out well, if feelings like fear of loss, the wish to control a partners feelings, possessiveness etc wouldnt be so prevalent (and shockingly acepted) in the regular, (serial-)monogamous society (just look at divorce rates,which can be counted..what might be the average "breakup rate"?).

And some stories of the collection also show how difficult it can be to adapt/live/love Polyamory for people new to the matter (hint,not a spoiler: 1st is the prelude for the last story)

Also definetly a film to watch with your partner(s) - if you're brave enough, as it could initiate thoughts and hopefully contructive conversations ;)

"In Corpore" was a beautiful film through and through - I have a friend who is an independent filmmaker and this movie was an inspiration on how to portray a beautiful story with strong character development, great acting, and incredible cinematography with lush surroundings and locations. Brave performances from the actors for sure, but this made for a realistic portrayal of the lives and relationships of 4 couples set in 4 different locations, ranging from Melbourne, Berlin, Malta and New York. An inspiring film that will definitely resonate with a wide range of audiences, I highly recommend this film. Kudos to Sarah and Ivan the directors for all their hard work and a job incredibly well done!
