THE HOLY PUMP
During a four-month "field study" on the subject of bodybuilding, material was collected in the form of talks, accompanied training sessions, documented everyday situations and visits to associated leisure and family events.
The focus is on the strictly structured everyday life, the rhythm and the repetition in the lifestyle of the bodybuilders. This includes the food and the use of the machines in the gym.
It shows a video essay, a mirroring sequence and a sequence of body details.
