Pseudomorphs is a film about doubling bodies, hypnosis and disappearance. It is staged across three locations: a beach home to giant ammonite fossils, a marine biology laboratory studying cephalopod cognition and skin camouflage, and an audio exercise to facilitate out-of-body-experiences. Taking multiple applications of the term “pseudomorph” or “false form” as a premise, the film thinks through disparate moments when the organic body’s boundary against the world becomes radically altered.
