Three for Society
Feisty and free-spirited, three disabled people talk frankly and directly about the barriers they experience in the 1960s
Overview
Three disabled people with cerebral palsy talk frankly and with feistiness about the barriers they experience in the 1960s, and their aspirations for the future. Unlike many other films about disability during this period, the participants are allowed to speak for themselves with little commentary. This makes for compelling viewing, as the shared attitudinal and physical barriers they all experience come into sharp relief.
