                     Becoming Bulletproof  is a documentary about a group of individuals with disabilities
                           who work alongside able-bodied individuals to produce a Western. The microcosm captured
                           in this film envisions a world where those with able bodies and disabilities work
                           side by side in understanding. A.J. Murray, a man with cerebral palsy, very clearly
                           illustrates for the audience the contrast of living in the world and living in this
                           microcosm for a small while. In the world, he feels useless; as an actor in this company,
                           he is valued, productive, and happy. A.J. notes what we all have in common—a desire
                           for dignity and worth. 
    
The evening is a movie event, complete with popcorn and candy, followed by some conversation—A.J.
                           Murray will be joining us after the film through Zoom!
