📖 Academic Review:
Recognized at international festivals, A Different Man follows the story of Edward, an actor with neurofibromatosis who undergoes an experimental treatment to change his appearance. However, his physical transformation does not grant him the acceptance he expected but instead plunges him into a deeper identity crisis. Schimberg crafts a surreal dark comedy that not only examines the representation of disability in cinema but also exposes the fragility of human perception and society’s obsession with image.
