LONG-03. imperfect

USA, Feature Documentary, 2021, 78 min

Winner of a People’s Choice Award at the Denver Film Festival

The Phamaly Theater in Denver has been featuring actors with disabilities for 32 exuberant years, and the high-energy enthusiasm and pure joy of this acting company is always a happy surprise to those outside the disability community. This film follows a company of actors with all types of disabilities as they attempt an unprecedented version of Fosse’s beloved musical Chicago. Capturing the raw, funny stories of the actors inside the production and in their everyday lives, imperfect reveals a rare behind-the-scenes look at talented artists who push to succeed as professional performers—no matter the obstacles—and crushes old notions of disability, affirming the human condition…in all of its many forms.
