Using (mostly) black and white documentary footage, this short film focuses on the 20th century's dictators - Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin, Franco and Chairman Mau. Narrated as if retrospectively commenting on their personal lives and problems (Hitler's flatulence, Mussolini's hygiene routine, Mau's constipation). Reducing these figures responsible for human suffering on a grand scale to the level of personal insecurities/foibles, Human Remains curiously reinforces their crimes against humanity.
