Storyline

Scrappy, defiant, and done being treated like a burden, Judy Heumann turns her outrage into a revolution. In 1977, she and more than 100 disability rights protestors send a very loud message: The system is broken—not us.

At its centre is a woman who is both likeable and a complete pain in the ass. That combination is what makes her feel like a real person rather than a monument, and it is why the film works so well.

Another inspirational true-life drama.

The result is a movie that feels like it’s making the kinds of compromises its subjects refused to.
