Filmmaker Melody Gilbert's fascinating, informative, surprising, 55-minute, 2003 documentary that consists of interviews with Scottish surgeon Robert Smith, psychiatrist Michael First, psychologist Leif E. Davis, and patients, including Dan Cooper and Hoorn Holland, from Scotland, England, France, and Florida who suffer from body integrity identity disorder (BIID) and have an overwhelming desire to amputate a limb due to apotemnophilia (i.e., a condition in which individuals have sexual fantasies attached to losing a limb).
