Morning Walk is a short film commissioned by Motionpoems based on a poem about Parkinson’s disease (PD), starring Debra Magid, an artist living with PD and oh yeah, my mother. The piece is a visceral and lyrical journey – juxtaposing a euphoric morning walk with the stark realities of a condition like PD.
My goal with the film, and what moved me the most about the poem, is to show that Parkinson’s is not a singular diagnosis. You can have PD and shake, shuffle or whatever form of symptoms you may have and still live a fulfilling life full of blissful morning walks. You can not have PD be your defining trait, but also never forget that you have PD, despite your best attempts. As the poem so perfectly states, people with PD want to be remembered “from the inside out”; seen but not pitied; considered but not treated as “less than”. This film honors that request, equally celebrating reality and the things we do to cope with reality.
