SYNOPSIS
At a daycare center in Stolin, Belarus, young people with disabilities participate in theatrical productions in POWER OF MOTHS, an uplifting and inspirational documentary following in the vein of Crip Camp.
Shot with the participation of theater companies from Lithuania, Poland, Ukraine, and Belarus, POWER OF MOTHS, from director Roman Romanov, follows these actors, as their perceived limitations evaporate on stage, revealing depths of character and capabilities that are seldom explored. The “stage” for them is not therapy or entertainment, but the only way of life in which they do not have limited opportunities because, for creativity, no physical limitations matter. Home audiences will have front row seats as these disabled actors immerse themselves in the life of an enriching community, where true love, openness, and the power of people is transformative in ways they could never have imagined.
