Icelandic Films: The Final Member

Some go to see art. Some go to see monuments. And some... well, they go to see "members"

A new documentary, The Final Member coming in a few weeks is about the Icelandic Phallological Museum located in Husavik, Iceland. The film is set to be screen at the Alamo Drafthouse in Younkers from April 18th - 24th. It will also be available on VOD starting on the 18th.

The film follows Sigur∂ur "Siggi" Hjartarson, founder and curator of the museum as he looks for the holy grail piece of his collection, a human phallus. 

Take a glance at the preview...

Summary from the film's website, The Final Member

Paris has the Louvre, London has the Tate Modern, and New York the Metropolitan Museum. But Husavik, Iceland—a diminutive village on the fringe of the Arctic Circle—boasts the world’s only museum devoted exclusively to painstakingly preserved male genitalia. Founded and curated by Sigurður “Siggi” Hjartarson, the Icelandic Phallological Museum houses four decades worth of mammalian members, from a petite field mouse to the colossal sperm whale, and every “thing” in between. Lamentably, Siggi’s collection lacks the holy grail of phallic phantasmagoria: a human specimen. Siggi’s world changes dramatically when he receives generous offers from an elderly Icelandic Casanova and an eccentric American. However, as the competition for eternal penile preservation heats up between the two men, Siggi soon discovers that this process is more complicated than it initially appeared.In their debut feature film, Jonah Bekhor and Zach Math follow Siggi on his dogged, often emotional quest to complete his exhibition in a peculiar, yet startlingly relatable, story of self-fulfillment and the value of personal legacies (both big and small).
