HSDFF 2009 Film List

Born female but raised as a male for twenty-eight years, Sam Durbin experienced unspeakable abuse, never learned to read or write, and drifted in and out of institutions. When he found Integrity House, a clubhouse for people with disabilities in Orange County, he learned to read, write, and advocate for himself, eventually becoming a published author and nationwide advocate for people with disabilities. Despite his successes, his past continues to affect him in profound ways‚ from how he trusts people to his own self-image. Student Film.
