Help me find the "perfect man" video clip

There was a video clip a while back (ok, maybe years now) that was a black and white film, about something like "the perfect man."

It just showed a guy in a white room, doing innocuous things with narration. "See how he eats. Yes, like this." At one point there was a woman, too. It was old, probably from the 60's maybe?

I know someone knows what I'm talking about. I can't think of an effective search string to find it. Does anyone have a link to that?

Best answer: The film is The Perfect Human, which I know because I watched Lars von Trier and Jørgen Leth's The Five Obstructions, which is about Leth recreating that film in different styles.

Response by poster: Wow, got it in one. Thanks, straw. "perfect human" (instead of man) gets much better search results.
