Valuable demonstration

My rating is because of the content of this film. It is a simple story that demonstrates what Aphasia is like in a heartfelt way. It also addresses the problem with making assumptions about someone's condition - what they can and cannot do. This can apply to any condition a person has. It focuses on a positive attitude and open mind for those around the individual who is suffering from an injury, etc. It is a short film so it is worth watching if someone has an interest in this kind of thing. I watched it because the NYT did a piece on people we lost in 2024. Naomi. Feil was one of them. She and her MD. Husband were involved in making the film. The article about her was fascinating. I googled her and found this film.
