Details and Storyline

DANI'S JOURNEY

Daniela Izzie just delivered healthy twin girls—making her one of very few quadriplegics ever to give birth to twins. Her dramatic and heroic story, showcased through this documentary, will provide a rare, intimate look into the issues of disability, pregnancy, love and perseverance. 

​

While a source of great awe and joy, Dani's pregnancy was fraught with risks—including blood pressure drops and spikes that led to frequent blackouts and even threatened stroke. The arrival of Covid-19 added another layer of challenge, particularly menacing for people with disabilities. Despite these ups and downs, Dani displayed unwavering determination throughout her pregnancy to deliver healthy babies and prepare for adaptive parenthood.

Dani’s disarming story will engage audiences with an unforgettable narrative and will impart a deeper, more nuanced understanding of “ability.” We hope you’ll join us on our journey to #NormalizeDisability.
