For thousands of years, in fairgrounds and temples, palm readers have claimed our hands encode valuable information. Is this just superstition? Or is there, buried beneath the theatre and the cliches, a core of genuine science? Can our hands really tell us anything about our past, our present or our future? Does the lifeline on your hand reveal the age at which you’ll die? Can your hands detect your sexual preference? For the first time palm reading is put to the test and will debunk the myths that have been passed on for generations. This documentary will also have you looking at your own hands in a new light.
