Documentary

TAMIR is a proud and caring team of participants, families, volunteers and professionals dedicated to assisting people with developmental disabilities realize their potential in a supportive Jewish environment through opportunities for personal growth and community involvement.  In the spring of 2010, TAMIR marked its 25th anniversary with a theatrical production of the Broadway hit "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dream Coat".  For the very first time, a professionally managed, fully integrated theatrical production was created involving people with developmental disabilities alongside people from professional and amateur theatre, and culminated in a live performance before a packed house at Centrepointe Theatre in Ottawa.  This inspiring documentary chronicles the process of integrating the TAMIR participants into the production, and follows several key players as they face incredible challenges and push the limits of inclusion from dream to reality.
