I found this one on Netflix streaming movies. It is a hoot, done in a style much like "The Natural History of the Chicken." Haven't seen that one? Then get to it.
The gist of the story is a 70-year-old man in Iceland, circa 2011, has been collecting penises for 40 years. He isn't quite sure why he got into it, but I suppose it just was a fascination. He had penises in his collection from just about every animal species, except ... homo sapiens. When his fame and his collection grew he eventually turned it into a museum.
The biggest problem is that there are laws regulating what is done with human body parts. You can't just request something and have it given to you, even if it is a spare part, like a penis, that has no other use.
A parallel story is of a man, an American, with a very nice and somewhat long penis that he named "Elmo". He was already considering transitioning himself into an androgynous state, neither man nor woman, so he decided it would be a good idea to memorialize Elmo by donating his penis complete with scrotum and testicles to the museum in Iceland. They were well on their way to making this happen when the museum received an offer they couldn't refuse.
The whole documentary is pretty interesting and also funny. Not a topic you come across very often!
