Summary |
Looks at children with Tourette's syndrome, a rare brain disorder, whose victims twitch, jerk, and are unable to control loud verbal outbursts, some obscene. Because the public lacks knowledge about the disease, these children also suffer public humiliation. "In every school in America, it's likely that at least one child may have Tourette Syndrome. ...[this] documentary that dispels the myths of Tourette Syndrome through the experiences of young people"--Container. |
