FullFrame film "Yellow Brick Road" on Cinemax

A documentary about handicapped adults performing a stage production of "Wizard of Oz" will air on Cinemax at 7 pm on Wed., Dec. 21. The film, which I saw at FullFrame, was well-recieved by the audience. The filmmakers examine their subjects beyond their various handicaps, which inlcude conditions like Down's Syndrome, Directors Matthew Makar and Keith Rondinelli had many obstacels getting the film produced, including obtaining the film's title from the heirs of L. Frank Baum, directing the film while working other jobs, and getting film for the documentary project.
