From Coalition of People of dis- Abilities of NYS- CPANYS (5.5.11):
Support a New Movie About Autism on May 12th
100 Cities. One Night For Autism.
May 12th, 2011 at 7:30pm
On Thursday, May 12th, The Arc is proud to co-host the nationwide screening of a new film, Wretches & Jabberers, which follows two men with autism who embark on a global journey to change attitudes about disability, intelligence and communication. Self-advocates Tracy Thresher and Larry Bissonnette's travels are chronicled by Academy Award-winning director Gerardine Wurzburg, and we don’t want you to miss an opportunity to see it!
To meet the demand to see the film after its initial screenings in April, a nationwide theatrical screening event was born – “100 CITIES. ONE NIGHT FOR AUTISM.” On Thursday, May 12th at 7:30pm, Wretches & Jabberers will be playing in 100 cities - probably one in your backyard - all to raise awareness about autism. To find out where this film is playing near you, to purchase advance tickets, or for more information, visit www.wretchesandjabberers.org
