| Résumé: | Ilana Trachtman's film Praying with Lior follows the story of a boy with Down syndrome whose remarkable ability to pray with intention makes him a revered figure in his Jewish community. By analyzing the film's production, narrative, outreach campaign, and press coverage, the author contextualizes the film within a larger genre called disability films. She poses questions about hypervisibility, filmmaker-subject relationships, and mediating disability onscreen. |
