About the Film:
"The Celiac Project" is a dynamic, first-of-its-kind documentary about life before and after the diagnosis of celiac disease. Filmmaker, Michael Frolichstein, struggled with a series of "mystery ailments" before finally being diagnosed with celiac disease at age 40. His journey to meet others who had suffered, as well as get answers from experts, led him to uncover more mysteries within his own family. His documentary explores what we can do individually and as a society to advance the conversation and raise awareness about the disease.  http://www.celiacproject.com/
