Without Pity: A film about abilities

Authors: Home Box Office

ISBN: WPD412W- DVD



Description:

"Disabled people are tired of being invisible and are declaring their right to an equal chance at life."
-Christopher Reeve

This HBO documentary, narrated by Christopher Reeve, celebrates the efforts of people with disabilities to live full, productive lives. We meet a cross section of Americans - a young woman with cerebral palsy cares for her baby, while a man with cerebral palsy lives successfully on his own after forty years in an institution. We go to school with a remarkable six-year-old without arms or legs, visit the workplace of a blind computer expert, and meet a professor with polio who teaches the history of discrimination against people with disabilities.

A young man, recently made quadriplegic, discusses his daily battle with depression and his determination to overcome it and get on with his life. This program applauds the resilience and potential of people with disabilities, and their determination to be self-sufficient.
