Description

NYC PREMIERE A heartwarming, enlightening journey about Gen Z life with a disability. Samuel Habib, whom we first met in the 2022 Emmy-winning New York Times Op-Doc short My Disability Roadmap, is now ready for life as a twentysomething and the typical milestones of those years. With a rare neurodevelopmental disorder challenging his speech and movement, Samuel seeks out mentors in the disability community for advice, asking profound questions about how they’ve navigated their adult lives . Samuel’s joyous thirst for knowledge and fearlessness in facing challenges – both in life and in making this film – are authentically galvanizing.  – Jaie Laplante
