Title: Radical

An Apple Studios feature film

>From Siân Heder, Academy Award-winning writer/director of CODA

When disability activist Judy Heumann led over a hundred disabled people to take over the San Francisco Federal Building in 1977, it ignited a 28-day sit-in. They quickly formed a tightly bound community, refusing to leave until the government enforced Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act, requiring all federal spaces to become accessible.


Casting roles of the 504 protestors with disabilities


Characters portrayed are any age, gender, or ethnicity. Individuals with disabilities sought to portray characters with disabilities who join in the fight for accessibility, including, without limitation:

*	People who use mobility devices, such as wheelchairs and crutches
*	People with cerebral palsy, spina bifida, muscular dystrophy, or multiple sclerosis
*	People who are blind or low vision
*	People who are deaf or hard of hearing
*	Little people
*	People who are amputees or have limb differences
*	People with intellectual or developmental disabilities

No experience necessary
