Video. David
with F.A.S. (1997). National
Film Board. 44 min 36 sec. "David
Vandenbrink seems like a normal 21-year-old,
bright and articulate. There is little
to suggest that while in his mother's
womb, he suffered permanent brain damage.
His condition, fetal alcohol syndrome
(F.A.S.), went undiagnosed for the first
18 years of his life, causing confusion,
anger, and pain for both David and his
adoptive family. This personal story,
using video footage shot by David himself,
along with the experiences of members
of his family, is a hard look into the
serious consequences of a little-known,
but widespread, health problem." Sorry,
