*Corpus Callosum is a 2002 experimental Canadian film directed by Michael Snow. The title is a reference to the part of the brain which was once thought to have been home to the human soul, and which passes messages between the two hemispheres of the brain. "Corpus callosum" in the film refers to the mysterious space between illusion and reality.[1] It won the Independent/Experimental Film and Video Award from the Los Angeles Film Critics Association Awards. Corpus Callosum is said to be a "digital self-appraisal of [Snow's] work",[2] showcasing his passion for visual manipulations through editing. Throughout the film, Snow's voice can be heard as he directs the film, adding to the break in the fourth wall which the film attempts to create.
