An image for the movie Out of My Mind shows a young girl with cerebral palsy in a wheelchair with her arms in the air.

‘Out of My Mind,’ the exciting new movie featuring a main character with cerebral palsy is out today. Watch it on Disney+ and share in the thrill of hearing new voices that are too often ignored.

‘Out of My Mind’ is a feature-length film based on the book of the same name by Sharon M. Draper. The story features Melody Brooks, a sixth grader with cerebral palsy, who is non-verbal but sharp as a tack.

The movie follows Melody as she struggles to communicate with others and faces discrimination and assumptions about her intelligence and what she is capable of. This is an uplifting tale of a young girl finding her voice, her strength, and her place in the world.

Too often, individuals with disabilities are overlooked and remain unheard and unseen. ‘Out of My Mind’ is a great movie, but it also raises awareness. Find this important new film today on Disney+ and check out this trailer describing how the movie highlights inclusivity.
