Mind in Motion,
2008
Medium length documentary
How can a blind man see with his tongue? How can the pain in an amputated limb be erased by vision?
New experiments, verified by medical imaging, show that our brain is an organ in perpetual evolution, endlessly creating new circuits and configuring itself by constantly adapting to the outside world.

These dazzling breakthroughs reveal aspects of brain function that will transform our understanding of humankind and society. With the collaboration of remarkable international scientists, pioneers of this new research, this film attempts to pierce the mystery of consciousness and what distinguishes us - or not - from other living species.
