Director(s) | James Redford |
Runtime | 52 min |
The stories of successful leaders in business, law and politics reflect on their dyslexic experiences as we follow the story of Dylan, a high school senior who must overcome the challenges of dyslexia to achieve his dream of getting into a competitive college. By following his journey as well as the journey of other children, we come to see how many myths and misconceptions there are about dyslexia and how it offers gifts as well as challenges.
Colorful animation as well as cutting edge research from The Yale Center for Dyslexia and Creativity complete a picture that is bound to forever change the way the public sees this vexing challenge.
