SYNOPSIS
In 1930, neurosyphilis struck an unsuspecting patient. Doctors at the Central State Hospital for the Insane in Indianapolis turned to malaria therapy--a radical treatment that they believed might work. Hancock looks through the lens of feminist disability to examine the popular but ethically suspect treatment and its consequences.
