Luke

‘Luke’ is a short documentary about an extraordinary young boy named Luke who was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy as a baby. Never accepting his physical limitations, he strives to be just like any other 9 year old; playing baseball, swimming and bowling. This inspirational film will tug at your emotions, but most importantly, it will make you view the word disability in a different light. 'Luke’ celebrates the potential of people with disabilities and the incredible determination that they possess.

Director Statement

I love getting behind the camera and telling a story. I also enjoy the editing of the film afterwards, choosing the best footage and adding music. Filmmaking combines my creativity in filming and my ability in editing.
