Pain’s a very distributed system. It’s not localized to one spot that you could zap if you needed to; or give one medication that would, like a heat-seeking missile, go to that area and turn it off.

With verve, visual flair, mixed media ranging from historical illustrations, colorful drawings, classic paintings and film clips, ‘Head’ races along as Styron amasses an amazing squadron of medical specialists from, literally, around the world to discuss theories, research, treatments.
OUT OF MY HEAD is a powerful, provocative cinematic essay about migraine… an expertly produced film which brings vital attention to the subject of migraine, and, especially to the people who suffer its impacts.
The superb, multilayered ‘Out of My Head’ written and directed by Susanna Styron, examines one of the cruelest medical afflictions imaginable: Migraines.
