The film we saw is called "Shooting Beauty" about a photographer who, after spending time photographing a group of people with cerebral palsy, decides to give this group of disabled people cameras and ask them to document their unique lives. It is a touching and inspiring story. The great thing about a film like this is learning about a group or individual who is literally changing lives and that we may never know about if it weren't for the film. Or for that matter the festival itself.

Reel Abilities
A friend of mine invited me to a documentary film screening at the Reel Abilities film festival this past weekend. The festival is "dedicated to promoting awareness and appreciation of the lives, stories and artistic expressions of people with different disabilities." There truly is a festival for everything.
