The Consequences of Marrying Your First Cousin

This documentary examines the health consequences of marriage between first cousins, a practice common in some communities and controversial in others. It follows families whose children carry rare recessive genetic disorders, and it lets doctors, parents, and campaigners speak to a sensitive subject that mixes culture, faith, and medicine. Rather than lecture, it lays out the science alongside the human stakes. Honest and compassionate, it handles a difficult topic with care. Free to watch in HD on Dr Documentary.
