CT Film Festival 09

Dislecksia: The Movie

"Dislecksia: The Movie" is more than an entertaining and informative documentary film. Its overriding intent is to be a vehicle for change in how the world teaches children how to read. There are 35 million dyslexics in America, and millions more whose learning would be dramatically (and positively) tranformed by changes in our educational system.

Emmy award-wining filmmaker Harvey Hubbell V hopes you laugh, cry, and get angry watching "Dislecksia: The Movie", but more importantly, we hope you'll leave with a sense of hope that change can happen, change that will benefit not only dyslexics but children in all levels and areas of education.

"Dislecksia: The Movie" Panel and Discussion:

Following the film will be a panel discussion, moderated by Harvey Hubbell V, to share knowledge and experiences and answer questions.

Panel members include:

Ken Pugh, Phd, President & Director of Research at Haskins Laboratories
Evelyn Russon, Mentor, Haskins Literacy Initiative
Piper A. Paul, CT Education Law Attorney
Parents of Dyslexics
Students of Dyslexic Schools
