"From award-winning filmmaker Dan Habib comes INTELLIGENT LIVES, a catalyst to transform the label of intellectual disability from a life sentence of isolation into a life of possibility for the most systematically segregated people in America."

My new film Intelligent Lives (working title, coming Fall 2017) will explore how our narrow views of intelligence have created unnecessary "ceilings" for people with intellectual disability, and how Micah and Naieer embody a new paradigm of what it means to be intelligent. The film features narration and a personal perspective from Academy Award winning actor Chris Cooper.
