- Synopsis
- A 7-year-old Zuzia, her parents, and her sister seem to be a normal, happy family. But from the moment Zuzia was born, she has been suffering from one of the most diabolical, rare genetic diseases known to man as E.B. (Epidermolysis bullosa). The little girl is often called a "butterfly child" because her skin is as sensitive as butterflies wings. It falls apart when one touches it. Her body is constantly covered in extensive wounds and she experiences excruciating pain. E.B. still remains an incurable illness. Will the innovative therapy developed by Prof. Tolar in the U.S. turn out to be successful?
