You are invited to a special screening of THE LIFE YOU’RE GIVEN (85 mins), followed by a Q&A with parents and filmmakers Jay Coggeshall and Susan Henoch.

ABOUT THE FILM: Sophie was born with Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS), a rare genetic disorder. Filmed over 35 years, THE LIFE YOU’RE GIVEN sheds light on the human side of this statistical rarity. The filmmakers are Sophie's parents, and they offer an intimate and honest portrait of their struggles and triumphs of raising a daughter with a rare genetic disorder. For more details, visit here.
