EndedDocumentary show

Life can be difficult when you're different, and being different has left many young people feeling lonely and isolated. Sure, there are support groups online but it's not quite the same as meeting people in person. So what would happen if people with the same condition, who were exactly like them turned up at their door and spent the next few days together? Could being one of the crowd for just a few days help them change the way the live their lives forever?

In each episode one young person struggling with their condition - vitiligo, Tourette's or scarring from burns - will be joined by a group of total strangers living with the same condition who share a bond of understanding that even their own families may struggle to share with them. With the help of their new found friends they will explore how they might help each other overcome their fears and anxieties.

Even your closest friends have never seen you without make up, so what happens when someone turns up who's out and proud and whose vitiligo has made them an online sensation? You're so afraid of your Tourette's Syndrome that you've become a virtual prisoner in your own home - will meeting others just like you encourage you to step outside? If you think people look at you and only see your burns, will other survivors help you see there's more to you?

Burns

Labonya, a young burns survivor lacking in confidence, is joined by a group of strangers who have all been through the same experience. As the group talk through the traumatic events that changed their life and how they survived, it will be a challenging few days. Will spending time with people just like her help her to build the confidence to see past her burns and overcome her insecurities about relationships?

26 year old Labonya suffered burns all over her body and face after an accident with an oil lamp as a child. Severely bullied at school, she has never truly accepted what happened to her. Her social anxiety leaves her in constant fear of people staring and rejecting her - to the point where it is destroying her relationship with her boyfriend. Having never spent time with other survivors before, Labonya is hoping by seeing how they have moved on in life it will be possible for her.

Skinwalker Ranch is now widely considered to be ground zero for UAP activity and high strangeness. Since 2020, Dr. Travis Taylor along with Erik Bard and their investigative team have been working around the clock to collect, analyze and decode as much data as possible associated with the phenomenon occurring at the site. Their experiments have yielded amazing results, but not enough to fully unlock the secret of the ranch. So, for the first time ever they have decided to expand their search for answers. In an effort to gain a broader perspective and build larger data sets, the Skinwalker team is adding two team members and taking the offensive by pursuing evidence of similar phenomena found at analogous sites around the country. No longer content to sit, waiting to be targeted…it's time to go Beyond Skinwalker.
