When We Walk

About This Movie

When We Walk is a raw, intimate exploration of life with progressive MS, directed by Jason DaSilva. The film captures his personal struggle with the disease while navigating the streets of New York City, which becomes a character in its own right. The pacing feels like a slow burn, almost contemplative, reflecting the daily challenges he faces. DaSilva's willingness to expose his vulnerability is striking, and the film's atmosphere is enriched by a combination of stark realism and poignant moments that resonate deeply. There's a certain authenticity to the way it portrays the intersection of mobility and identity, challenging our perceptions of disability. It’s a personal journey, yet invites viewers to reflect on their own lives in a broader context.
