Description:
Fueled by the same rage at an unresponsive system that has inspired many a great social documentary, filmmaker Kim Snyder has taken up the fight for the more than 800,000 people living with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) in the U.S. today. CFS has recently received much high-profile media discussion due to SEABISCUIT author Laura Hillenbrand's longtime battle with the disease. Investigating the baffling malady once maligned as "yuppie flu," Snyder interweaves her own four-year battle with the disease with the stories of others facing the same challenges; soccer star Michelle Akers and legendary Hollywood director Blake Edwards (BREAKFAST AT TIFFANY's, THE PINK PANTHER) are among the participants. More than an account of an epidemic unfolding, I REMEMBER ME speaks to universal themes of loss, human perseverance and the difficulties in grappling with uncertainty.

This documentary is both a personal story of the experience of chronic fatigue by the documentary maker and an exploration of other people's experience of the disease and the response of the scientific and medical community to it in America. The documentary serves as an exercise in trying to understand the mysterious condition for the documentary maker as well as trying to explain it to others. There are a variety of different approaches adopted - stories from people severely struck with the disease, ... Read More

I became aware of this documentary at a CFIDS conference I recently attended. I rented it immediately, and for the first time since I was diagnosed with CFIDS (about 3 months ago), I didn't feel alone. I had my mother watch it, and it helped her understand what I have been going through. I will be lending it to my family and friends, as it explains my new life better than I can. I highly recommend this documentary to anyone who is suffering from CFIDS or has a loved one with this misunderstood illness.

This film conveys the frustration, confusion, the pain of no support that every person who suffers from CFS experiences. It does it in a unique way that finally gives outsiders an intimate view of the life of CFS. It shows the range of affliction and suffering. Bravo, a fabulous tribute to all who have CFS.

It is very hard to understand CFS from the outside looking in, but this is a good way to begin. Unlike books, the emotions that accompany this illness are expressed in such a way as to vibrate all the way into your soul.
I should make a technical note. The use of camera angles and shake may come off as gimicky. As a photojournalist I have no problem with the methods employed, but from my stand point as an editor whatever method you use, it has to work.

How happy I was to find this most important documentary on CFIDS. I felt so grateful to Kim Snyder for making this film which, not only let me know I am not alone but, gave me a very good visual tool to educate my family,friends and colleagues who really don't get it. My husband and I were particularly struck by the testimony of one family member who related that, unless you live with a CFIDS sufferer you really have no idea. The fact is that people only see us when we are having a good day and can get ... Read More
