Monica and David

Monica_and_DavidTonight I finished watching the documentary Monica and David:

MONICA & DAVID explores the marriage of two adults with Down syndrome and the family who strives to support their needs.  Monica and David are blissfully in love and want what other adults have—an independent life.  Full of humor, romance and everyday family drama, the film uses intimate fly-on-the wall footage to reveal the complexity of their story.  While Monica and David are capable beyond expectations, their parents, aware of mainstream rejection of adults with intellectual disabilities, have trouble letting go.

It's an interesting and touching film.  I give it 4 out of 5.

Theme by Danetsoft and Danang Probo Sayekti inspired by Maksimer
