CGiii Comment
3 men, 3 penises...vying for a place as the first human specimen in The Icelandic Phallological Museum - the world's only Penis museum.
There's the 95 year old, self-confessed womanizer...waiting an eternity to die...to donate.
There's the American...quite willing to have his Elmo-named, Stars & Stripes tattooed penis surgically removed while he is still alive...ready to donate...with conditions...and, some serious mental health issues.
And, there's the curator...after some serious medical news...he, too, is ready to donate...to complete his collection.
Who wins?
A story about obsession, delusion, commitment, ambition and achievement...with tinges of heartfelt tenderness and the frailty of human existence.
Beautifully filmed, wondrously scored...and, as eccentric as a box of pissed-off frogs.
A beautiful, bizarre and crazy film.

Thirty miles from the Arctic Circle, in the northern Icelandic town of Husavik, stands the Icelandic Phallological Museum - the world's only Penis museum. Over 40 years, the founder and curator has collected every specimen from every mammal except for one elusive penis needed to complete his collection: The Human Specimen. The film follows the curator's incredible, sublimely comic, often shocking quest to complete his eccentric collection, and the two intrepid men who have raised their hands to be the first human donor.
