A pediatric syndrome that causes neuropsychiatric disorders.
«This collective narration handles this topic in many different ways that come across the syndrome in various contexts and phases. We wrote the stories based on field study: interviewing kids and their families, on the meetings we had with specialized doctors and the representatives of the American context». The short will be available for the public on the 20th of august; on this day will also start a crowdfunding campaign to reach the goal budget.
