Equal Play (2024) Hamptons 2024


This is  look at how sports for kids with disabilities is just as important as is it for every other kid. Looking at two English kids, we are shown very clearly how playing sports changes kids for the better.

This film is magic. It will truly open your eyes to the magic of sports. We see how the kids become more social and feel better thanks to their playing sports. 

There is one of the best moments in any film I've seen in 2024. The sequence where Tammy, the young electric wheelchair bound girl, who gets put in a racing chair and then manages to not only do a single lap of a track (which her coach hoped she might be able to do) but a second. The look of absolute delight on her face as she is set loose and can just go...and go... and go... had me tearing up. The pure unbridaled joy on her face says it all.

This is a great film. You need to track this down.
