Orozco el embalsamador
2001 · Film · documentary · 92 min
Directed by Kiyotaka Tsurisaki
In 1996, Tsurisaki Kiyotaka, one of Japan’s most infamous death photographers, ventured into the center of Hell itself - the Rue Morgue neighborhood of Bogota, Colombia. With death and murder rampant, the corpses eventually find their way to embalmer Froilan Orozco, who has been tending the dead for over 50 years. We watch as bodies are brought in to his shop and he prepares them for their funerals.

There's a pretty entertaining (though stomach churning) documentary called "Orozco el embalsamador"about an embalmer working in Columbia.

If you'd like something with less amazing, but more striking visuals then give Orozco el embalsamador a try (NSFW).
