A UNIQUE DOCUMENTARY

Why are people with disabilities so strange? Why do I feel so uncomfortable around them? Brave in the Attempt endeavors to break through the barriers of perception that alienate those with disabilities from the rest of the population. How someone looks and sounds on the outside may not predicate who they are on the inside.
Often humorous and poignant, this feature documentary follows a basketball team of 15 young athletes in their quest for Olympic gold. Though they may have disabilities, they have the same desire for competition we all do. Some want to win very badly. Some are better athletes than others. Some don’t like sports at all. In other words, they are just like everyone else.
Throughout the journey the athletes with their coaches and families give us insight into the challenges facing those with disabilities while showing us just how capable they really are. Through their tournaments, social events, work and school we get a glimpse into their lives as well as how to build a team.
We hope this documentary will be a great first step to introduce everyone to the disability population, and how normal they really are.
