Electric Malady

Filmhouse, Friday

Scottish premiere of an insightful documentary, screening as part of the Film Festival.

William lives in rural Sweden in painful isolation. Shielding himself from technology and radiation with sheets of foil and copper-lined blankets, he claims to have electromagnetic hypersensitivity, a medically disputed syndrome still being explored by the WHO.

Glasgow-based director Marie Lidén, whose mum suffered from the same condition, learns more about the illness in a poignant film.
