Join renowned neuroscientist Dr. Vilayanur Ramachandran as he explores four extraordinary neurological conditions that challenge everything we know about the mind. Meet Graham, who is blind yet can perceive movement, defying conventional scientific understanding. Discover the perplexing phenomenon of phantom limbs, where amputees continue to feel sensations in their missing limbs. Learn about patients like Mrs. Sinclair, who deny their paralysis and believe their limbs belong to others, a condition known as anosognosia. Understand how damage to the brain's temporal lobes can lead to profound emotional and cognitive changes, as seen in temporal lobe epilepsy.

This documentary is not just about rare conditions—it's about uncovering the incredible adaptability and complexity of the human brain. Each case study is a detective story, revealing new insights into consciousness, selfawareness, and the very nature of belief.
