Becoming Bullet Proof
October 27th at 7pm
Fourth Floor Programming Room
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!
