Actually crazy that they don’t teach about this in any American history class at any level

Inspirational and uplifting (at this point, that’s just what the Apple TV+ brand is). Fascinating piece of history that I was ignorant about but am so glad I finally got around to this. Disappointed it wasn’t shortlisted for the Oscar.

I feel like this would have been more interesting if they interviewed more than 5 people. I knew a bit going in about the movement, inspiring to see how everyone rallied for change and won. Very satisfying. Great that we got another deaf directed film from 2025!
