A Life Without Pain is a 2005 documentary film by Melody Gilbert about children who can't feel pain. [1]
The film explores the daily lives of three children with Congenital insensitivity to pain, a rare genetic disorder shared by just a hundred people in the world. [2] Three-year-old Gabby from Minnesota, 7-year-old Miriam from Norway and 10-year-old Jamilah from Germany have to be carefully guarded by their parents so they don't suffer serious, life-altering injuries.
The release of the film garnered widespread interest in the topic, and the character Gabby was featured on The Oprah Winfrey Show in 2006. [3]
