Danish filmmaker Lars von Trier has entered a care center for treatment of Parkinson's disease, as confirmed by Zentropa Entertainment. Producer Louise Vesth mentioned his care is supplementary to his home environment, stating he is managing well. Von Trier publicly shared his diagnosis in August 2022 and remained focused on completing his film, 'Riget Exodus.' His career has been marred by controversy, including being banned from Cannes and facing allegations of sexual misconduct from Björk, which he acknowledged as psychological abuse.
Lars is currently in a care center that can provide him with the treatment and care his condition requires. It's a complement to his own private accommodation.
At the time, Zentropa said he was being treated to complete Riget Exodus (which translates to The Kingdom: Exodus), the third and final installment of his supernatural series.
In 2011, he was banned from Cannes for seven years after saying he 'sympathized' with Hitler.
Björk has accused von Trier of committing sexual assault during the making of his 2000 musical Dancer in the Dark.
