Hold Your Breath submitted by whoisdonald on August 17, 2012, 3:10pm A special documentary that brings us into the world of a fantastic character and also creates a story with suspense. Petit is a natural performer and larger than life personality that makes for great cinema. This films is expertly crafted to let him shine and gain insight into someone who's wired differently than the rest of us.
