After industrialization came to the small fishing island of Santa Mara del Mar, its heartbroken inhabitants saw their livelihoods come to an end. But their fate is about to take a turn at the chance of a fish-packing plant setting up shop in town. All they need is a doctor to move to the island for it to happen.
A friend recommended a Quebec television series on Netflix called Au Secours de Beatrice (Saving Beatrice) about an emergency room doctor in her forties who begins to experience some rather mysterious health symptoms and turns to a therapist for help in uncovering their cause.
2. About a quarter to a third of each episode shows Beatrice with her therapist talking about the issues in her life and in particular how her life has been influenced by her childhood.
I have never been to therapy so the show provides for me a fascinating look at how one can view things from different angles and with renewed perspective after discussing it with a professional therapist.
Paternity tests filed as evidence in his criminal case showed Cline was the biological father of at least two of his patients' children. The trailer for the new documentary suggests he may have fathered more than 90 kids.

Doctor Slump (Korean: 닥터슬럼프) is a 2024 South Korean television series written by Baek Seon-woo [ko], directed by Oh Hyun-jong [ko], and starring Park Hyung-sik, Park Shin-hye, Yoon Park, and Gong Seong-ha [ko]. It aired on JTBC from January 27, to March 17, 2024, every Saturday and Sunday at 22:30 (KST). It is also available for streaming on TVING in South Korea, and on Netflix in selected regions.
It is a romantic comedy series about the hate turned to love relationship of Nam Ha-neul and Yeo Jeong-woo, who had promising prospects in their careers, but fell into a slump due to different circumstances. Ha-neul and Jeong-woo were high school rivals who despised each other and parted ways after high school. But when they are forced to quit their jobs as doctors, they end up living together at Ha-neul's house.
Cline, once a well-respected fertility doctor in Indianapolis, used his own sperm to inseminate patients without their knowledge for years. Some became pregnant and unknowingly had Cline's biological children.
The law made it possible to bring civil action against a doctor up to five years after a person discovers their parentage and makes it a level 6 felony to create a misrepresentation involving a medical procedure, device, drug or human reproductive material.
Instead, he pleaded guilty to two counts of obstruction of justice after lying to officials about whether he used his own sperm to inseminate patients and was given a suspended one-year sentence in December 2017.
Some of Cline's biological children were upset with a 2019 FOX series, "Almost Family" that heavily mirrored Cline's case. They felt the show painted the issue of the parentage and insemination as largely humorous and downplayed the emotional scars this left on the people Cline impacted, according to Facebook posts and interviews given to the Daily Beast, as previously reported by IndyStar.
But this documentary is different. Ballard said she was "forever grateful" to the Netflix documentary's director, Lucie Jourdan, and producer Michael Petrella of "Our Father" in a Facebook post Thursday.
I started getting questions about Netflix\u2019s new gut-health documentary before it even came out. The trailer for \u201CHack Your Health: The Secrets of Your Gut\u201D was pushed to multiple people in my life (including me), presumably based on our past viewing habits\u2014I don\u2019t typically watch things like that for fun, but I\u2019ve been using my account for research purposes recently, so now I\u2019m getting served all the wellness-y stuff. But it was also pushed to family members who don\u2019t really go for that sort of thing, so maybe the algorithm is casting a wider net with this one.
Given the questions plus my general interest in gut health, I decided to watch this doc. I was ready for it to be full of overblown rhetoric about the gut\u2019s role in well-being, but the hype was even more egregious than I\u2019d anticipated\u2014and with a level of casual fatphobia that felt out of place in 2024.
The film opens with Giulia Enders, a telegenic German medical doctor and researcher who is arguably the world\u2019s biggest hyper of gut health, walking through a field of tall grass with a telescope. As we watch her set it up and peer through the lens, she explains in voiceover that humans have made incredible discoveries about this planet and even visited the moon, but that \u201Chardly anyone has really adventured into their own gut.\u201D
Despite the relative newness of gut research, she and the other featured experts are surprisingly confident in their claims. Within the first minute, we hear that the gut can determine whether we are \u201Coverweight\u201D or \u201Cobese,\u201D whether we get diseases like heart disease, autism, depression, anxiety. There\u2019s footage of people eating fast food, meat, and soda, intercut with celebrities making wellness claims and four \u201Cregular people\u201D expressing confusion about what to eat and how to be healthy. Then, the chorus of gut researchers, fronted by Enders, chimes in: looking at all of these issues through the lens of the gut makes everything clear. As the opening song crescendos, Justin Sonnenburg, another famous researcher and purveyor of gut-health hype, delivers the film\u2019s thesis: the gut is \u201Cthe center of a biomedical revolution.\u201D
Of course, the gut microbiome is a hot area of research, and there may well be some cause for excitement. There is some observational evidence showing correlations between gut microbes and certain health outcomes, and while it\u2019s still far too early to make the kinds of causal claims that get thrown around in the doc, I\u2019m sure it\u2019s an exhilarating time to be a researcher in this area\u2014designing studies, testing theories, exploring what feels like a whole new universe. The film does a good job of capturing that heady feeling.
There are other things to like about it, too. The production values are great, as you\u2019d expect from Netflix. There\u2019s cute stop-motion animation with little woolen dolls and animals\u2014though unfortunately it\u2019s sometimes deployed in wildly weight-stigmatizing ways, like showing creatures blowing up like balloons and rolling away after eating certain foods. My favorite part was the four featured non-experts\u2014particularly Maya Okada Erickson, a Michelin-starred pastry chef with an eating disorder, who is thoughtful about how her fear of food could play a role in her digestive issues, and who candidly says that the experts\u2019 recommendations of foods to eat and avoid probably won\u2019t be helpful given her tendency toward obsessiveness. I wish the film spent more time with these people and showed them getting some real help for their issues\u2014three of the four seem to be struggling with some degree of disordered eating, and one has a history of chronic dieting.
Instead, the health claims really dominate this doc, which I think is to its detriment. There are too many to address here today, and I\u2019ll likely continue to unpack some of them in my ongoing coverage of gut health. But today I want to focus on two claims: that the microbiome determines your weight, and that it can dictate what diseases you get. Both of these claims conflate correlation and causation, and neither is based on solid science. In fact, it\u2019s surprising just how shaky the evidence for them really is.
Four doctors, two of them pregnant, star in the eight-episode series and succeed at drawing you in with their passion for patients and their ability to juggle their intense jobs and lives outside of Lenox Hill, a hospital established in 1857 to treat people in the immigrant community.
We discussed her experience treating an endless stream of patients with a camera rolling, giving birth to her first child as a part of the series, and what it was like working in a New York City hospital during the COVID-19 pandemic.
They were just so discreet. The cameraman was almost like a ninja. He would just pop up whenever he needed to pop up. The consenting was done beforehand, and then I would walk into the room and they would just be there.
I usually have my schedule in advance for the ER, so I was able to give them my schedule and they would tell me the days and the shifts that they would come by. It would be pretty often for a while for several months, actually, until I had the baby.
We started filming when I was a little earlier in my pregnancy, actually, and by the time she asked me, I felt so comfortable with (directors) Ruthie (Shatz) and Adi (Barash) that I was actually not hesitant at all.
They explained to me what the idea was, the vision, and I actually got to see their work. I had some time to sit down and watch their work that they did in Israel. They did a similar series in Israel in a hospital, same concept, where doctors from different specialities were followed and they were filmed, both their personal and professional life.
Especially in New York City we have a huge homeless and psychiatric population that is unfortunately saturated, and sometimes in my eyes not supported enough because the system is so saturated, so a lot of these patients are lost to follow up and care.
The hospital itself did a job that was just unbelievably amazing, especially Northwell (Health). We had to make spaces within our hospital, within spaces. Even our own space, our emergency room, had an entire inpatient floor upstairs made for COVID patients, and then there was the (USNS) Comfort, and the Jacob Javits (Center).
