Twitch and Shout poster
7.0

They blink, they grimace, they jerk, they moan. No matter how hard they try, their bodies, minds, and voices won't do what they're told. People with Tourette Syndrome (TS) , a rare and incurable genetic disorder, are the subject of the irreverently titled Twitch and Shout, a riveting, unsettling, and frequently funny inside look at what it's like to live with this often misunderstood neurological condition. Twitch and Shout not only sheds light on the nature of this puzzling disorder, it also examines the way society all too often heaps scorn and abuse on those who stray, however involuntarily, outside the limits of conventional behavior.

Just One Drop takes a no-holds-barred look at the most controversial form of medicine ever invented. Homeopathy treats the entire person, not just the disease. It’s a specific form of medicine that uses minute doses of a highly diluted substance that stimulates the body to cure itself. It is these tiny doses that causes the most controversy. Researchers believe there is a release of energy in water that becomes mysteriously dynamic. Others think it’s purely psychological or worse, a form of deception or quackery. Yet millions claim homeopathy cures even though there is not yet a satisfying scientific explanation. It remains a mystery.
