Narrated by disability rights advocate Rebecca Alexander and featuring rarely seen photographs, film clips and moving performances of her written reflections and observations by actor Cherry Jones with ASL interpretation by Alexandria Wailes, this documentary explores Keller's vibrant life while revealing some of the social obstacles she encountered and progressive reforms she helped to achieve."--Container.
