Summary:

An emotional insight into a debilitating disorder. Horizon meets Richard and Sophie, two people battling obsessive compulsive disorder. Sophie's overwhelming fear is that she might have murdered people. Richard is scared that he will contract fatal diseases from more or less everything he touches. For both of them, their condition is so bad that it is limiting their ability to live normal lives. This film finds out what OCD really is, what triggers it and asks how it can be stopped and it meets the scientists whose cutting edge research is promising sufferers hope.
