Summary
The explosive documentary THE SYNDROME follows the crusade of a group of doctors, scientists, and legal scholars who have uncovered that “Shaken Baby Syndrome,” a child abuse theory used in hundreds of U.S. prosecutions each year, is not scientifically valid. In fact, they say it doesn?t exist. Filmmaker Meryl Goldsmith and national award-winning investigative reporter Susan Goldsmith document the unimaginable nightmare for those accused and focus on the men and women dedicating their lives to defending the prosecuted and freeing the convicted. Winner of an Award of Merit at the **Impact Docs Awards**. *"A subject that proves to be urgent, fascinating and high-stakes." - Katie Walsh, **Los Angeles Times***
