We are grateful for the investment support of Q'Straint to finish this film, the world leaders in wheelchair and occupant securement, making safety accessible.
PREMIERE BRAND SPONSOR
We are proud to partner with a company dedicated to helping people with disabilities plan for their financial futures.
Since 2016 fiscal sponsorship has been provided by Film Independent. We give thanks for their excellent guidance and mentorship.
The film tells the story of international disability rights advocate, Cara Elizabeth Yar Khan. Deep in the throes of an aggressive, fatal muscle-wasting disease and no longer able to walk unassisted, Cara ventures out on a daring, 12-day expedition through the Grand Canyon.
Cara’s journey to live an extraordinary life and shatter stigma against people living with disabilities unexpectedly becomes a deep dive into fear, trust and vulnerability. As the entire expedition team grapples with unanticipated dangers in a truly remote wilderness, they also come face to face with their individual demons, insecurities, and internal conflicts.
