Anne paints with just her index finger, effectively smashing society's misconceptions about living life with a disability one masterpiece at a time. Feelings of Invisibility is a film that centers around themes of sexuality and disability, creative expression, activism, love, loss and grief. This contemplative visual journey provides an inside look on a life unseen by most that will shake loose the assumptions and limitations we impose upon others. It is not what you expect.
