 A 
 closeted champion weightlifter, 
 haunted by vice, becomes a poet of 
 contemporary neuroscience. Months before his 
 death, Oliver Sacks sat down with legendary 
 director Ric Burns to tell his life story, in 
 his own words. A story that includes battles 
 with drug addiction, self-hating homophobia, 
 and a research establishment that failed to 
 understand him. His story ultimately helped 
 redefine our understanding of the human brain 
 and the diversity of the human experience.\n
