What happens

Heal is a 2017 documentary film that was written and directed by Kelly Noonan-Gores and produced by Richell Morrissey and Adam Schomer. The film focuses on mind–body interventions and follows several individuals who used these techniques after being diagnosed with a fatal disease. It was reviewed by critics as an "infomercial" that makes some valid points while it pretends to be based on science, yet some believe it promotes pseudoscience. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
