You might know Zach Kornfeld from creating and starring in The Try Guys, he is also a best selling author, a podcast host, and more. This is a very powerful short film that takes a comedic look at a very heavy and very real topic. I look forward to seeing what else he directs, writes, and stars in.
Director's Statement: The things you love are more important than the things that hurt you. So often for people living with disabilities, or any sort of chronic condition, we end up defining ourselves by what ails us instead of by what we love. With that in mind, I set out to make a short that helped audiences understand invisible illnesses -- something that is inherently unknowable -- by filtering my disability through the lens of magical realism, homages, and my favorite genre tropes. To take control of the thing that causes me pain every single day through the aesthetic of the things that give me comfort and joy. The result is Ouch!, a film I hope is as fun as it is cathartic.
