Description
Tying Your Own Shoes is an animated documentary offering a
rare opportunity to hear the unique perspectives of four adult artists with
Down Syndrome. Shira Avni follows her award-winning animation, John and
Michael, with this auteur hybrid film in which Petra, Matthew,
Daninah and Katherine discuss their pasts, relationships and ambitions;
challenging widely-held stereotypes. While Down Syndrome is often discussed in
terms of disability, Tying Your Own Shoes is an artful,
four-way essay about ability.
