Alicia Eastes is a Coma survivor who defied the odds and became a mother after her severe Neurotrauma, which surprisingly ignited an extraordinary Neuroplasticity during pregnancy and ongoing Matrescence. In this feature documentary film, she’s leading us on her journey of exploration to understand the burgeoning Neuroscience of hormonal changes after Neurotrauma and during early parenthood, which underscores the need for more research in Women’s sex-specific healthcare.

SYNOPSIS:

What if pregnancy is the key to unlocking healing after a brain injury and other diseases?

In the feature documentary film Liminal Space, Alicia Eastes explores the medical science of how pregnancy significantly enhanced her healing four years after a coma. By sharing intimate details and anecdotal stories of three other women who’ve had similar healing experiences through pregnancy, she will offer revealing insights for the medical research community to follow. The questions generated during her conversations with these other ‘miracle mothers’ about their healing pregnancies and birth experiences will lead her directly to ask the experts and interview critical cutting-edge scientific minds in neuroscience and maternal health. This film presents the groundbreaking biological science of how pregnancy can heal the brain and other conditions. New research could spur innovative neurological treatments and other holistic therapies for the brain and body. Alicia has assembled a global panel of experts she will interview for their insights about the remarkable reproductive healing experiences of her and other women.
