Our home has been nothing but a playroom. I have

been your doll-wife, just as at home I was papa's

doll-child; and here the children have been my

dolls. I thought it great fun when you played withme, just as they thought it great fun when I played

with them. That is what our marriage has been,

Torvald.

(from: Henrik Ibsen, A Doll's House)

Susan Marks, Of Dolls and Murder

Of Dolls and Murder is a documentary film about a

collection of dollhouse crime scenes and society's

collective fascination with death.

-stills of the models used in film; the film is still

fundraising to finish post-production-

In the 1930s and 1940s, heiress Frances Glessner

Lee, created dollhouse crime scenes to help traindetectives in the art of reading crimes scenes. The

dollhouses, known as The Nutshell Studies of

Unexplained Death, are on permanent loan to the

Maryland Medical Examiner's Office in Baltimore,

and are not open to the public.

The film follows how these intricate dioramas are

still used to train homicide detectives, despite all

the technological advances in death investigation.

The dioramas also provided inspiration for The

Miniature Killer, a recurring villain in season seven

of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation. The villain's

modus operandi is to leave behind accurate

dioramas of her crime scenes.



In a further exploration of morbid curiosity, the

filmmakers also shadow a Baltimore City HomicideDetective, and visit The Body Farm, a

where researchers study the decay of bodies.

Anastassia Elias, Neige (Snow)

She writes about her work: "I cut the small paper

shapes that I stick inside the toilet paper rolls. I

use tweezers to manipulate the paper shapes. I

selecte the paper of the same color as the roll. It

gives the illusion that the paper figures make part

of the roll".

Thanks to Elio Caccavale for introducing me into

this fascinating world.

Also, if you like gory stuff, there is a special

website where they teach you how to become a

doctor should your doll break or have some

problems. If you are curious about it, I am sure

you can find it yourself (too ashamed to give the

link).
