WR: Mysteries of the Organism
Director of Photography
What does the energy harnessed through orgasm have to do with the state of communist Yugoslavia circa 1971?

His surreal documentary-fiction collision WR: Mysteries of the Organism begins as an investigation into the life and work of controversial psychologist and philosopher Wilhelm Reich and then explodes into a free-form narrative of a beautiful young Slavic girl’s sexual liberation.
