New documentary questions IQ as a measure of intelligence

From award-winning filmmaker Dan Habib comes Intelligent Lives, a catalyst to transform the intellectual disability label from a life sentence of isolation to a life of possibility for the most systematically segregated people in America.

The documentary “Intelligent Lives” follows three adults with intellectual disability who are excelling at work and school. Filmmaker Dan Habib challenges the ideas that people with intellectual disabilities are not intelligent and that IQ tests give a complete picture of a person’s abilities. There will be nearly 100 screenings of “Intelligent Lives” across the US this fall, including a screening in the UD Trabant Theater on October 29. This event is free and open to the public.
