MIFF | 8° Film Festival Internazionale di Milano - Faith Healer / Adam Hirsch / Gene Kordis, Amojean Black, Mark Adam Goff Faith Healer Gene Kordis, Amojean Black, Mark Adam Goff
Faith Healer is the story of an alleged healer, Jefferson Bull Fermor, who sat for two interviews of this documentary before unexpectedly fleeing. Shortly after his departure, the filmmakers found an old box, the contents of which offered them with a glimpse into his mysterious life. The film deconstructs the documentary form while searching for truth in a manipulative and illusory medium.
Adam Hirsch A transplant to the East Coast from Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, Adam Hirsch attended Bard College, New York, for filmmaking. He studied under Kelly Reichardt (Wendy and Lucy) and Peggy Ahwesh (Scary Movie) during his time at Bard, and was mentored by renowned avant-garde filmmaker Peter Hutton (At Sea, New York Portrait) during his last two years of school. In 2007, his video installation Tesssmokeonetake was exhibited at the Hessel Museum in New York. Adam Hirsch lives and works between Boston and Oklahoma City. He is the founder of Saint Eliot and Company, a filmmakers collective and production company focused on nurturing and exhibiting independent voices in cinema.
