Review : At close range

Fantastic fetal photography and disturbing microscopic views of human skin
are among the striking visuals on display in three programmes exploring the
vision of Swedish photographer Lennart Nilsson. The first in the series went out
in Britain on Channel 4 at 8 pm on 30 November. Catch the next two at the same
time on the following two Saturday nights (7 and 14 December). The music is
sometimes intrusive and the narrative rather too poetic—but on the whole a
fascinating visual insight into a hidden world.
