Their wedding was a magnificent and well-attended ceremony. However, unlike most other couples, Nitsan and Sagi are young people with Down Syndrome. This sensitive and candid documentary explores the issues faced by the couple and their families leading up to and following their wedding. Nitsan and Sagi demonstrate how individuals with Down Syndrome and other disabilities value participating in the full range of life's experiences.
Program to follow led by faculty of the UCLID Center at the University of Pittsburgh, "Leadership for an Inclusive Society."
