SUMMARY:MEL - CRIP CAMP: A DISABILITY REVOLUTION Screening
DESCRIPTION:On behalf of Netflix we’re delighted to invite you and your guest to an industry screening of CRIP CAMP: A DISABILITY REVOLUTION. \nWhen: Wednesday 20 January\nTime: 6.30pm start\nLocation: The Backlot Studios\, 165 Bank Street\, South Melbourne\nParking: Free from 6:30pm\, all other times it is paid 2 hour parking. \nSynopsis: In the early 1970s\, teenagers with disabilities faced a future shaped by isolation\, discrimination and institutionalization. Camp Jened\, a ramshackle camp “for the handicapped” in the Catskills\, exploded those confines. Jened was their freewheeling Utopia\, a place with summertime sports\, smoking and makeout sessions awaiting everyone\, and campers felt fulfilled as human beings. Their bonds endured as they migrated West to Berkeley\, California — a promised land for a growing and diverse disability community — where friends from Camp Jened realized that disruption and unity might secure life-changing accessibility for millions. \nCo-directed by Emmy®-winning filmmaker Nicole Newnham and film mixer and former camper Jim LeBrecht\, this joyous and exuberant documentary arrives the same year as the 30th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act\, at a time when the country’s largest minority group still battles daily for the freedom to exist. \nCRIP CAMP: A DISABILITY REVOLUTION is executive produced by President Barack Obama and Michelle Obama; Tonia Davis and Priya Swaminathan; Oscar® nominee Howard Gertler (How to Survive a Plague) and Raymond Lifchez\, Jonathan Logan and Patty Quillin; LeBrecht\, Newnham and Sara Bolder produce. \nYou can view the trailer here\nDuration: 106 minutes \nRSVP is essential to celia@bluecatpictures.com.au.
