This is the most touching and inspirational movie. The fact that is based on true facts makes it even more powerful.I can't wait to see it produced on DVD. I have being looking for it on DVD for a long time. I am a Psychologist, and MFT and this is a movie that I would recommend to all my patients to see. "I believe that it does not matter what life brings us, it is up to us to overcome adversity. We have the freedom in our will to choose not to be miserable by being in the presence of the absence, and to do the best of what we have."

February 10, 2008Gaby is one of our favorite movies. It is a true story and can be used for self motivation. Have a box of tissues and enjoy the story of a brilliant person who was strong,determined though she had a debilitating disease.
The story is GREAT which is why I rated it five star.
The product was NOT as clear as I would have liked. I would rate the product 3 STAR.

I absolutely love this film. I watch it all the time, on my recorded copy. It is very inspiring and heartbreaking at the same time. I just wish that it would be released on DVD, because it is so hard to find a good vhs copy of it. So please, please release it on DVD.

An emotionally gripping, touching, and sadly inspirational story based upon the life and creative contribution of Gaby Brimmer. Born of wealthy Jewish refuge parents residing in Mexico after the Second World War, she was afflicted with Cerebral Palsy and unable to move all but her left foot. Despite this, and with the love and wisdom of her parents and life-long Nanny she was the first so handicapped person to challange the entry exams and to proceed through high school and the University at Mexico City, distinguishing herself in the process. She went on to be published, in articles and in her autobiography. Rachel Levin's performance as the severely handicapped Gaby has to be seen to be believed. As a Doctor of Medicine and a writer, I found it astounding. Gaby Brimmer died of a stroke on January 3rd of this year. The world is richer for her inspiration and poorer for the loss.
