I can't wait until this hits the big screen-and I do hope it gets a lot of publicity.
Truth is- Lady E-your sister's clip needs to be right up there with it.

You're so sweet, Cobby! I have been following this documentary for a couple of years now. Honestly, I was beginning to wonder if it was ever going to get released. I'm sure that there's spin in this, too, especially since Turn the Corner Foundation is involved (and therefore the movie is obviously going to take an ILADS slant), but I am very excited about the release. I definitely intend on seeing it ... and I have been spamming my friends and relatives info about it, hoping a few of them will see it, as well. If all else fails, I'm sure the video will make good holiday gifts.

Greetings from Open Eye! We're excited to announce the world premiere of UNDER OUR SKIN, an infectious new film about microbes, money and medicine. Three years in the making, this documentary reveals the shocking human, medical and political dimensions of one of the most misunderstood diseases of our time--Lyme disease. Following the lives of courageous patients and physicians as they battle the epidemic, the film brings into focus a haunting picture of our healthcare system and its inability to cope with a growing terror under our skin. The Tribeca Film Festival, quickly becoming one of the premiere film festivals in the country, has selected UNDER OUR SKIN for its "Discovery" section, showing it at a coveted Saturday 7pm screening slot. It is also being featured in a special "Behind the Screens" series to discuss "films and conversations about truth, clarity and responsibility." UNDER OUR SKIN is one of three festival films chosen for this series, and the only documentary. We anticipate major press for this event, and look forward to bringing the film's issues to the forefront of the American public. Help us pack the house at the Tribeca screenings, so that broadcasters and distributors know how important this film is and how large of an audience it can generate! _______________________________________________________ Tribeca Film Festival Guide: www.tribecafilmfestival.org/filmguide/16735456.html

Under Our Skin press release: www.wtop.com/?nid=596&sid=1424229I've heard mixed reviews on the documentary, now that it's finally out. Some say it's pure genius, while others call it nothing but more LDA propaganda. Haven't seen it for myself, so I can't say.
