About
The GTC Medical Anthropology Film & Discussion Group explores the extent to which film can complement, enrich and further the study of medical anthropology themes, topics and methods. After watching selected clips, we discuss a film’s content and approach, and interrogate its capacity to support the analysis of issues relating to illness, crisis, health and wellbeing. This term we focus on the theme of ‘Togetherness’.
Lives In Touch/Part of Me (2018) Anne Posthuma
Through the film, the director explores four different interspecies relations of human beings, to companion animals. More specifically, to cats and dogs. When humans and animals live together, share space and share common worlds, a kind of ‘attunement’ happens that can be called a ‘becoming with’.
