Honors and recognition for the award-winning short documentary film MORE THAN A TEST by Shelby Smith.

MORE THAN A TEST
THE RISE OF THE UNSILENCED MOVEMENT

Unsilenced Movement founder Shelby Smith (she/they) reveals the dark underbelly of VCUG, the "gold standard" diagnostic test for kidney reflux (VUR) in pediatric urology. VCUGs are performed on up to 1 million children every year while being falsely promoted as safe, low-risk and minimally invasive, despite decades of critically appraised research establishing this test as the "psychological equivalent" to child sexual abuse.
