{{work}}
''[[Marwencol]]'' is a 2010 independent [[Documentary]] film that explores the life and work of photographer Mark Hogancamp. It is the debut feature of director-editor Jeff Malmberg.
On April 8, 2000, Mark Hogancamp was attacked outside of a bar by five men who nearly beat him to death. After nine days in a coma and forty days in the hospital, Mark was discharged with brain damage that left him little memory of his previous life.
Line 8:
When Mark begins documenting his miniature dramas with his camera, his photos are discovered and published by Esopus magazine and even shown in a New York art gallery. But having the label of "art" applied to his intensely personal work forces Mark to make a choice between the safety of his fictional town and the real world he's avoided since his attack
