A look over the fence
from the video of the week series, episode 1

Parkinson's knows no borders and so we occasionally take a look over the fence at our neighboring countries.
- Is the incidence there the same as in Germany?
- Is there a nationwide structure of self-help organizations?
- How deep is the awareness of the problems of people with Parkinson's anchored in the population?
Affecting one in 250 adults in France and with prevalence rising, Parkinson's disease poses a major public health challenge in our immediate neighbourhood.
On the occasion of World Parkinson's Day, the France Parkinson Association launched its new campaign to highlight the daily difficulties of people living with the disease and raise awareness of the seriousness of the disease.
As part of this campaign, this video was created, which sums up life with Parkinson's with incredible intensity and without words.
But see for yourself.
