A film dream of disabled fulfilled
On Thursday, the movie “My Dream” premiered in China. It focuses on a live stage performance that features dancing, singing, and musical instruments. The catch: all 104 performers are disabled in some way.
For instance, the art director of the troup Tai Lihua, who is deaf, read a poem. While a Xinjiang girl with broken legs sang from a wheel chair. A man with no arm danced. And Jin Yuanhui, who is blind, performed Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata.
These remarkable people are from the China Disabled People’s Performing Art Troup, and they were featured at the opening and closing ceremonies of the Paralympic Games.
“My Dream” has not been released commercially, but will be distributed free of charge to any organizations who request a copy.
