VENICE : Danish filmmaker Lars von Trier said on Thursday he was feeling well after being diagnosed with Parkinson's disease but acknowledged it would take time to get used to the tremors brought on by the ailment.
His production company announced last month that he had been diagnosed with Parkinson's - a degenerative brain disorder that causes difficulty with walking, balance and coordination. "The Kingdom Exodus" is the third and final instalment in von Trier's cult TV show"The Kingdom" that was launched in the 1990s.
"The Kingdom Exodus", which premieres at Venice as a five-hour film, will be launched in five episodes on Viaplay's platform and Danish broadcaster DR later this year.
