Doors: 5:45pm | Performance: 6:15pm

Directed by Dan Habib

Twenty-one-year-old Samuel Habib wants to launch the bold adult world he craves – to date, leave home, go to college – but he drives a 350-pound wheelchair, uses a communication device, and can have a seizure at any moment. Can guidance from America’s most rebellious disability activists empower his path forward?

Join us at 6:15 p.m. for a pre-show panel featuring Dr. Thomas Neuville, Disability Studies Professor at Millersville University, Jacklyn Nagle, Executive Director of the Disability Empowerment Center, Theo W. Braddy, Executive Director of the National Council on Independent Living, and Christian Huber, Disability Advocate with cerebral palsy and future Social Work/Disability Studies major at Millersville University.

After the showing, join us for a live Q&A with the film’s director, Dan Habib, as well as pre-recorded Q&As with Samuel Habib, the young man featured in the film. Maysoon Zayid, a comedian, actress, writer, and disability advocate, will be joining the session via Zoom.
