Presented by Chan Zuckerberg Initiative: No Ordinary Campaign (Film and Discussion)
Setup
At just 37 years old, Brian and Sandra, who met and fell in love on the 2008 Obama campaign, found their world upended by Brian’s diagnosis of ALS and the possibility that he may have only six months to live. This is a story about patients taking control of the fight for their lives and remaking the broken health care and legislative systems. In doing so, they show us how to live and that victory is possible in the face of seemingly impossible odds. Award-winning journalist Katie Couric will moderate a discussion following the screening.
