Pain / CR / 22’

After the established diagnosis and the initial fear of its development, Ivan Faktor decided to visualize his own state with Parkinson's disease with a mobile phone camera. After 50 years of filmmaking, his passion for art and life is still here. He is filming himself, his wife, the yard, the street, the studio, and above all the light attractions in his house. Faktor records everyday life but disrupts the daily structure by intervening in reality using light attractions or optical obstacles like his own trembling fingers. Through interventions in documentary situations, he creates a surprising inner world of an artist imprisoned in space. Over time, this recording method produced a therapeutic effect for Faktor, and he copes more positively with the progressive disease. He thinks about his film during the day, and shoots at night when everything is quiet, so even the sound we hear reveals the unnaturalness of his movement.
