Navigating restaurant bathrooms and treacherous subway platforms takes incredible skill for New Yorkers with limited mobility. As his multiple sclerosis begins to affect his ability to walk, to speak, and to see, filmmaker Jason DaSilva is forced to learn new skills in his mid-twenties, to survive with a disability and to thrive as an artist.
Plays with When We Walk
Join us for a Q&A with filmmaker and protagonist Jason DaSilva and Simi Linton, founder and Co-Director of Disability/Arts, after the screening!
