Please Believe Me (2022)
Please Believe Me is a Virtual Reality Immersive Project inspired by the true story of Vicky Logan, a Lyme disease patient. It premiered at The Tribeca Film Festival on June 10, 2022. It was created by Nonny de la Peña, executive produced by Kimberly Atwood, and sponsored by the Global Lyme Alliance.
“Thirty years ago, Vicki Logan was diagnosed with the recently identified Lyme Disease. When she didn’t recover with antibiotics, one doctor stood by her side while others in the medical establishment turned against Lyme patients who complained of symptoms after receiving standard treatment. This VR piece investigates Vicki’s tragic case and explores why the scientific community stopped believing patients.”
