Cold Souls (2009)

This film begins with the assumption that the soul is a small, physical gland at the base of the skull. It then takes the viewer on a wild ride about what it means to be alive.

A fictional version of Paul Giamatti (played by Paul Giamatti) feels stiffled in his performances as an actor and jumps at the chance of having a new operation done that unburdens the patient of their cumbersome soul. His life becomes devoid of passion when his soul is removed and it becomes even more odder when he has a different soul implanted.
