Entertainment and Education

At the Down Syndrome Congress (NDSC)’s Annual Convention this past weekend there was a special educational edition release of the award winning documentary Monica & David.

“MONICA & DAVID explores the marriage of two adults with Down syndrome and the family who strives to support their needs. Monica and David are blissfully in love and want what other adults have—an independent life. Full of humor, romance and everyday family drama, the film uses intimate fly-on-the wall footage to reveal the complexity of their story. While Monica and David are capable beyond expectations, their parents, aware of mainstream rejection of adults with intellectual disabilities, have trouble letting go.”

VIDEO: Official Trailer posted by the American Film Institute

The film Alexandra Codina’s debut as a director and producer. She is Monica’s cousin. The film was distributed by HBO and aired last fall. It won best documentary at the Tribeca Film Festival. Monica and David was nominated for an Emmy Award for Outstanding Informational Programming, Long Form.
