This documentary (IMDB 2012), focuses on inclusion of people with physical challenges in front and behind the camera. Until seeing this piece,
inclusion had never been a thought, guest it never occurred to me that this segment of the population was missing more from films than not.
Taken for granted.... As I am watching , I reflected back to being very upset as a little girl when people would laugh at theThree Stooges. Didn't find anything amusing about people hitting each other or insulting one another to be funny.
Cinemability gave me a deeper understanding of what these brave people have endured since the dawn of cinema, and their efforts haven't been in vein,... Three of my favorite shows on ABC are Speechless, Fresh off the Boat and the Good Doctor...All have representation of this unrepresented group.... As a society, we have made major improvements to include physically challenged people in a mainstream kind of way, but on film we are still lacking with that imagery.
