Education Assignment 4: Disability in Film

Please review the following website on Disability in Film

https://mubi.com/en/lists/disability-in-film

From the entire list presented in this link, choose one film to watch for this assignment (the entire film, not just the trailer). The movies are not posted on this website (just the list is posted and you are not required to sign up for any program/app for this assignment), so it will be up to you to find an available movie to watch elsewhere. Perhaps it was one of your favorites and you just want to watch it again. Perhaps you want to watch a new one you have not seen. So this is a good excuse to pop some popcorn and watch a movie! This list is a little outdated, so there could be a newer film that fits into this category. After watching the movie, answer the questions to complete your discussion assignment.

ONE: Provide the title and a summary of/plot of the movie. What was the disability of the main character(s)?

TWO: You will find seven ways of which an environment can facilitate self-determination for people with disabilities. In your movie of choice, briefly describe how self-determination was fostered (or not fostered) for the individual(s) with the disability in each of these seven ways.

THREE: Find the benefits of inclusion for people who have been oppressed and not oppressed or privileged. After reading through these benefits, describe how the people with and without disabilities in your movie experienced (or did not experience) these benefits. Discuss three of the benefits for the individual(s) with disabilities and three benefits for the individual(s) without disabilities.
