This is the trailer for a 72 minute documentary commissioned by the Genesis Foundation Colombia, in which Carlota Nelson looks at why some children thrive and others do not. Through interviews with cutting edge researchers, scientists, economists, families and educators, BRAIN MATTERS explores the so called "miracle years" and how everyday situations such as play, relationships, language and nutrition in the first few years can provide every child with the opportunity to thrive. You can read Ammara Mushtaq's and Farooq Kazi's reflections on the documentary in The Lancet Child and Adolescent Health here and/or watch the trailer here. The full documentary is available for purchase on iTunes, Amazon and VOD.
