Berlin Brains - Can you raise your left eyebrow? How much the brain knows about how the body moves

We communicate a lot through small movements of our facial muscles: Emotional nuance relies on motor nuance. But do we know about the tiny but important movements our facial muscles make? It turns out, we don't know much! Elisa Filevich and Polina Arbuzova talk about how little we actually know about our own movements (of our face and others) and why it might still be enough.
