Jennifer is twenty-eight years-old, working on her PhD at Harvard, and months away from marrying the love of her life when a mysterious fever leaves her bedridden. When doctors tell her it&#8217;s &#8220;all in her head,&#8221; she picks up her camera as an act of defiance and brings us into a hidden world of millions that medicine abandoned.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this story of love and loss, newlyweds Jennifer and Omar search for answers as they face unexpected obstacles with great heart. Often confined by her illness to the private space of her bed, Jennifer connects with others around the globe. Like a modern-day Odysseus, she travels by Skype into a forgotten community, crafting intimate portraits of four other families suffering similarly. Jennifer Brea&#8217;s wonderfully honest and humane portrayal asks us to rethink the stigma around an illness that affects millions. <\/span><b><i>Unrest<\/i><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is a vulnerable and eloquent personal documentary that is sure to hit closer to home than many could imagine.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Website:<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.unrest.film\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.unrest.film\/<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Twitter: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/unrestfilm\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">@unrestfilm<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><b>Who Am I To Stop It (2016)<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><b>Co-directed and produced by Cheryl Green and Cynthia J.

It follows three artists as they navigate social isolation, stigma, and rebuilding their identities. They practice the arts to re-connect to their own sense of self-pride and to their larger communities. Rather than emphasize the injuries themselves or highlight medical aspects of disability, we explore consequences of institutional and internalized ableism. Through visual arts, music, and personal narrative, the subjects explore questions around poverty, sexuality, faith, family, success, and community. Using a biopsychosocial framework, Who Am I To Stop It deftly uncovers what lies beneath the surface for so many peers with brain injury and their communities.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Websites: <a href=\"http:\/\/whoamitostopit.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">http:\/\/whoamitostopit.com\/<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newday.com\/film\/who-am-i-stop-it\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.newday.com\/film\/who-am-i-stop-it<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Twitter: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WhoAmIToStopIt\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">@WhoAmIToStopIt<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><b>When I Walk (2013)<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><b>Directed by Jason DaSilva<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>1 hour and 21 minutes<\/b><\/p>\n<div class=\"jetpack-video-wrapper\"><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"1360\" height=\"765\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/iX-snqNJlxU?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Available on <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vudu.com\/content\/movies\/details\/When-I-Walk\/568406\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vudu<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/video\/detail\/amzn1.dv.gti.eeae56de-d020-4fd2-3561-2328cbef819b?autoplay=1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Amazon Prime,<\/span><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=hSrf9kf53Ew\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">YouTube<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/movies\/details?id=hSrf9kf53Ew\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Google Play<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/movie\/when-i-walk\/id895586086\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">iTunes<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wheniwalk.com\/about\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Director\u2019s statement<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> by Jason DaSilva:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201c<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I wanted to capture this transformative experience\u2014becoming disabled\u2014in WHEN I WALK because I hadn\u2019t seen it done before, and people need to see how a degenerative disease impacts the lives of those living with it. The first scene in the film is of me on the beach with my family. I brought my camera along to film the get-together, but the footage we captured meant more than I could have imagined: I fell down, and couldn\u2019t get back up. It was the very first time my MS made something in my life go completely awry, made itself visible and impossible to ignore. What was supposed to be a nice family vacation turned into the inciting incident. Soon after, and encouraged by my family, I chose to not ignore my MS but to turn my camera on it instead. I had made films all my life, so making a film about the progression of the disease seemed a natural way for me to process the journey.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Documentarians often want to build trust and acceptance with their subjects. Being that I was the subject of my own film, and that I didn\u2019t yet have that acceptance of myself, the filmmaking was arduous at first. There was always the internal struggle of putting myself on camera and deciding how much of myself I wanted to reveal. As I got worse and worse, reviewing the footage became emotionally difficult and physically draining. Living your life in the present while also reflecting upon it creatively, actively editing it and putting the pieces together in real time, put me in a psychological feedback loop that was tricky to negotiate. Every night after filming and editing, I would have dreams of being able to walk; then I\u2019d wake up unable move and start the process of filmmaking all over again.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Be sure to also check out <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/whenwewalk.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When We Walk (2019)<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Website: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wheniwalk.com\/axs-map\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.wheniwalk.com\/axs-map\/<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.axslab.org\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.axslab.org\/<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Twitter: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/axs_lab\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">@axs_lab<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><b>Sins Invalid: An Unshamed Claim to Beauty (2013)\u00a0<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><b>Directed by Patty Berne<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>32 minutes<\/b><\/p>\n<div class=\"jetpack-video-wrapper\"><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"1360\" height=\"765\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/7gjP0Wtlrpg?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Available on <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newday.com\/film\/sins-invalid\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">New Day Films<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/newday.kanopy.com\/product\/sins-invalid-unshamed-claim-beauty\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Kanopy<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sinsinvalid.org\/documentary\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sins Invalid\u2019s website<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201c<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sins Invalid<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> witnesses a performance project that incubates and celebrates artists with disabilities, centralizing artists of color and queer and gender-variant artists.
