Losing It

Center for Documentary Studies Filmmaker Award - Honorable Mention 2001

NEW DOCS

Even as a child, Sharon Greytak wondered if other people with disabilities battled for their identity just as she did. In an attempt to answer this question, she travels the world and documents how other people living with physical disabilities face the realties and difficulties of everyday life. A very personal film, it visits New York, Brazil, Siberia, Italy and Hong Kong and gains honest answers to how others deal with their situations. Through interviews and personal narrative, Greytak weaves a story of struggles, aspiration and resilience that is inspiring to all.
