Robbie has an agressive form of epilepsy and has to take several medicine for it. Instead of curing, the medicine worsens Robbie's epilepsy. Robbie's mother (Meryl Streep) tries to find another cure since the only alternative is surgery. She then stumbles on an alternative for medicine: a diet. She talks about it to Robbie's doctor, but she is against this treatment. Robbie's mother then decides to take Robbie to Baltimore to let hem undergo the diet.
Great movie with great performance by Seth Adkins as Robbie.
The movie stars several epilepsy patients who followed the diet and are "cured" from their epilepsy. They don't star as epilepsy patients but in other roles. The doctor who explains the diet is a real doctor who in her normal life explains the diet to others.
