CORPUS chronicles Connie Diletti's journey across North America as she visits many of the fascinating people, places, and facilities involved in non-traditional afterlife services. Highlighted options include plastination, cryonics, mummification, glassblowing, diamonds, space travel, fine art photography, and using your remains to grow coral reefs.

Like any modern woman, she is a conscientious consumer. Connie is also on a voyage of self-discovery that ultimately sees her overcome her fear of death and uncover its origins. In the end, she’s our personable tour guide in an irreverent, entertaining road movie that somehow manages to affirm life itself.

CORPUS premiered at the Montreal World Film Festival and was short-listed to screen at Semaine de la Critique du Festival de Cannes.

"Your amazing way of dealing with such a taboo topic as death was by making a wonderful feel-good movie.”

– Alex Masson, Cannes Feature Films Selection Committee Jury Member
