Imagine being constantly worried about losing things, plagued by the thought something hasn't been done properly or unnaturally frightened of contamination. To overcome these thoughts you may resort to rituals such as counting, hoarding, repeating or washing. This is the strange world of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). Touch Wood is an intimate journey into the lives of people afflicted by OCD. Once considered a form of madness, the condition is now easily diagnosed yet its cause is still a mystery. One of the disorder's strangest features is that those who suffer from it are unable to believe their own senses - they cannot stop checking things; such as whether the doors are locked, even though they may have already checked them many times already. Innovatively crafted using a combination of candid portraits and creative animations that explore the inner worlds of those who suffer from OCD, Touch Wood is a humorous and moving exploration of this unusual mind disorder, making for compulsive viewing!
