I Am Able. (2015, USA) After miraculously surviving a rebel attack in Rwanda, Frederick Ndabaramiye uses painting, cycling, and storytelling to change conceptions of what it means to be able.
Attila’s Next Step. (2017, USA). Determined to break the hand-cycling world record, Pittsburgher Attila Domos tests his mental and physical endurance as his local community of supporters helps him every step of the way—most notably his mentor and now fellow hand-cyclist, Danny Chew.
Attila Domos and Danny Chew–both adaptive cyclists–will both be attending and speaking after the film!
Plus three more films this evening. Tickets are $12 and each film has open captioning and ASL interpretation.
