| Summary |
A triumphant film that traces the origins of the world-wide disability rights movement. It tells the stories of the individuals who bravely put their lives on the line to create a better world where everyone is valued and can participate. Featuring interviews and rarely seen archival footage, the film reveals how these activists fought to live outside of institutions, challenged the stigmas and negative image of disability portrayed by the media, demanded access to public transportation, and battled to reframe disability rights as a social responsibility relevant to us all. Winner of the Grand Jury Prize at the **Vigo Inclusion Film Festival.** Official Selection at the **Sydney Film Festival.** *"A documentary on a civil movement that everyone needs to know about." - Dov Kornits, **FilmInk*** |
