Spirit/Will/Loss (2015)
Sculptor/painter Katie Dallam entered the boxing ring for her first professional fight and, 140 blows to the head later, suffered major brain damage. (Her life became the basis for the movie Million Dollar Baby). Irish musician Graham Sharpe’s career was on the rise when advancing tinnitus caused a ringing in his ears so bad that it put an end to his rock-and-roll dreams. Sculptor Alice Wingwall experienced complete loss of sight from a degenerative eye disease. Game over for these three, right? Not so fast. Each managed to struggle, innovate, and, ultimately, through their art, transform themselves into someone new.

Sorry, this movie sucks
As Good As It Gets
It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.
The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.
When I start feeling sorry for myself or worried about becoming disabled due to an injury I suffered recently, I remember the inspiring stories of the three artists depicted. Cinematography is gorgeous. I have watched this film at least 5 times!
