About this film

Stories of resilience, love, and family in the face of adversity. Each day more and more people are being diagnosed with some form of neurological condition. Most of these conditions are debilitating, degenerative, or incurable. As this number is set to increase as the population ages, the importance of brain research cannot be underestimated. This compassionate documentary follows patients experiencing four such conditions; Epilepsy, Motor Neurone Disease, Alzheimer’s Disease, and Parkinson’s Disease as they undergo testing, surgery, and treatment in the name of research. Their futures may be written but their present day stories are ones of resilience, love, and family in the face of huge adversity.
