‘All in Your Head’ raises the profile of epilepsy in an imaginative way and aims to challenge stereotypes about this “invisible” disability which affects at least one in 200 of the population. Moving away from a traditional documentary format, it explores sensations, vulnerability and emotional dimensions by drawing on personal experience: the patient takes control of her own representation and looks at epilepsy from the inside out.
