Billings: The Body Without Organs

Police forced their way into a quiet stone house in Helmsley, North Yorkshire, only to find a scene six weeks in the making, with a smell that reached the pharmacy down the street.

In this episode, we uncover the extraordinary life of Rina Yasutake, a Cambridge scholar who retreated from the world to create her own language and reality within the confines of her family home.
