The Bridge at Midnight Trembles

On March 15, 2004, Richard Moir underwent an operation for Parkinson's Disease. Called Deep Brain Stimulation, electrodes are placed in the brain that are powered by batteries placed in the chest. The current 'zaps' bad signals in the brain. This film gives you an insight into the daily life of a patient with Parkinson's Disease, which is a view you don't get as a doctor in a clinical practice.
