"This award winning documentary follows the strikingly original life of the unique artist, comedian, and performance-artist Bob Flanagan. A provocative, deeply moving, often hilarious chronicle tracing Flanagan's experiences with sadomasochism in his struggle to manage the fatal illness Cystic Fibrosis, \"Sick\" explores the limits of pain, sexuality, love and death." . . . . "The title, Sick, of Kirby Dick's incredibly powerful documentary about performance artist Bob Flanagan hits the mark on two levels. In one sense, it describes his physical condition; Flanagan suffered from cystic fibrosis all his life until his death at forty-three. The second, more evocative reference is to the shockingly direct sadomasochism of the artist's performances. Take warning, this is not a film for the squeamish, the prudish, or the faint-hearted. Even hardened viewers may feel disconcerted by his performances, which include piercing and penetrating of almost every body part by practically any sharp object. No other artist in history has examined so literally the experience of pain and the associated pleasures of sadomasochism and domination."@en . "Surviving through the pain and anguish of cystic fibrosis is difficult. Bob Flanagan dealt with his pain by living a life of masochism.
