Watch Pedro Pires' Astounding DANSE MACABRE

Pedro Pires' short film Danse Macabre is a perfect little gem of a film, a fusion of film and performance art revolving around the sanctity and even beauty of death captured flawlessly on film. It's been a great favorite here at ScreenAnarchy for some years now and it has just been released online for free viewing. This is eight minutes very, very well spent.

For a period of time, while we believe it to be perfectly still,
lifeless flesh responds, stirs and contorts in a final macabre ballet.
Are these spasms merely erratic motions
or do they echo the chaotic twists and turns of a past life?
