Film Overview
The remarkable spirit and intellect of Gabriela Brimmer, as she overcame tremendous odds to become an accomplished poet and author, make GABY–A TRUE STORY a deeply moving film. Born with severe physical disabilities, Gaby grows up with a passion for living and an adament refusal to let anything prevent life's fullest expression. The all-star cast, which includes Liv Ullman, Robert Loggia, and Norma Aleandro (THE OFFICIAL STORY), creates the force and feeling to make this a triumphant film. You will laugh and cry as you share in an amazing chronicle of humanity.
