Every year, the best under-18 braille readers and writers in the English-speaking world come to Los Angeles to compete in the Braille Challenge. For one weekend, these blind and low-vision kids aren’t the minority in the room, as they make new friends, go head-to-head against old rivals, and strive for the rare opportunity to be recognized for something beyond their disability. Empowering them to become filmmakers, BRAILLED IT gives these kids cameras and has them document the event on their own. Ultimately, the kids’ honest, personal, and emotional footage makes the human drama of their experience—and the true power of literacy—accessible for all.
Following the film stay for a Q&A with:
Conchita Hernández Legorreta BRAILLED IT Impact Producer
