If you're looking to spark some intellectual engagement this Thursday, the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth is your destination. As part of the Movies That Matter series, the museum is offering a thought-provoking evening with a screening of The Disruptors at 7 p.m. October 2, 3200 Darnell St. – and it won't cost you a dime. Just head online and grab a reservation to secure your spot.
Delving into the complexities of ADHD, or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, The Disruptors casts a revealing light on a condition often blanketed in misconception. According to the City of Fort Worth, the film features a cohort of high achievers – from CEOs to Olympic athletes – who view their ADHD not as a hindrance, but as a catalyst for their successes. It promises an exploration that debunks the myths, while showcasing the real-life challenges and unexpected victories for families living with ADHD.
But the series effort extends beyond just movie watching. Following the screening, attendees can engage in a moderated discussion with special guests, diving deeper into the human and civil rights issues spotlighted by the film. Movies That Matter runs bi-monthly and consistently offers this kind of enriching experience, aligning with its vision of highlighting critical societal themes through cinema.
