A Hole In The Head is an hour long documentary about trepanation - the process of boring a hole in the skull. A Hole In the Head examines the development of "modern" trepanation as used by people in the United Kingdom, the United States, and The Netherlands for the purpose of attaining a higher level of consciousness. This procedure, used by the ancient Egyptians, Incas, and others, is believed by the voluntarily trepanned to allow for renewed brain pulsations that increase brain blood volume and thereby improve brain function. Interviews regarding the history and efficacy of the procedure are also held with some of the world's most respected neurosurgeons and anthropologists. A Hole In The Head won the Best Documentary Award at both the Atlantic City Film Festival and the Brooklyn International Film Festival. Produced by Cevin Coling, the film was broadcast on the Discovery and The Learning Channels. A HOLE IN THE HEAD IS NOW AVAILABLE ON DVD.
