My Name Is Brian.

An inspiring mini-documentary (2 mins 44 secs).

Dara O’Neill, of Dream Boat Productions,  writes:

My Name is Brian is a story that gives a moment to the expression of a dancer with Down Syndrome who is embarking on a mission to choreograph a show for the first time.

An empowering and inspiring window into the world of a gentle voice that also talks through his body. His beautiful and thoughtful movement resists the idea of disability and limitations.
