Open Eye Pictures
Open Eye Pictures presents: A dramatic tale of microbes, medicine & money, this eye-opening film investigates the untold story of Lyme disease, an emerging epidemic larger than AIDS. Each year thousands go undiagnosed or misdiagnosed, told that their symptoms are "all in their head." Following the stories of patients and physicians as they battle for their lives and livelihoods, the film brings into focus a haunting picture of our health care system and its inability to cope with a silent terror under our skin. wwwunderourskin.com/watch.html

BIG NEWS: "Under Our Skin" has made the short list (top 15) of Oscar-nominated movies for Best Documentary. To get to the top 5 - the movies the world hears about - studios have to launch major marketing campaigns (think "Swag Bags," swanky parties, and the like) aimed at the folks who make the final decison on the winner. Having UOS part of the Oscar buzz that is about to begin around the country and on national TV the night of the big show would be a HUGE BOON for Lymies. If you want to help, Open Eye Pictures (the independent - not big mucky-muks - studio that made UOS) is asking that you send $10, or whatever you can afford, to them help with this cause. http://www.underourskin.com/donate.html
