"Trichster follows seven individuals as they navigate the complicated emotions surrounding their hair pulling disorder, clinically known as Trichotillomania, and the effect it has on their daily lives. The disorder is an ever present part of their lives following them through family dinners, school projects, starting careers, and building relationships. Some go to great lengths to hide the effects of the disorder, some strive to become pull-free, while others decide to accept their desires to pull. Ultimately they must each decide how much they allow Trichotillomania to define who they are as people."--Container.
