Stelarc - Suspending Disbelief (2025)

Directed by John Doggett-Williams, Richard Moore

“A biopic about a lively, articulate character with a demonic laugh and a presence that fills the screen.”

Documentary · 1h 12m

Melbourne-based Stelarc burst into prominence in the early 1970s with confronting, and outrageous public art performances. Following his mantra that ‘the body is obsolete’ he set about testing the limits of his own body in a series of death-defying stunts. Stelarc has always fought to escape the force of gravity. A third arm, an extra ear, a cheeky prosthetic head and an ambidextrous hand all play parts in this lively biopic as Stelarc wrangles the intersection between humanity and technology.
