KING GIMP
Filmed over the period of thirteen years, this Academy Award-winning documentary is a chronicle of Dan's life - from his years in a special needs school to his college graduation. A frank, uplifting epic of triumph over adversity, the program is also the portrait of an artist's birth, since it was Dan's discovery of painting and drawing that freed his spirit of expression from the prison of his body. His ongoing career as a successful painter attests to his victory over nearly insurmountable obstacles both physical and societal.
