ABOUT ``UNDER OUR SKIN'' 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. This film was an audience award finalist in both the Tribeca (7th place out of 120 films) and Berkshires (2nd place) film festivals. http://www.underourskin.com/
