Higher Ground, the production company created by former president Barack Obama and his wife Michelle, will be producing a documentary on seminal players in the early disability rights movement for Netflix. One of several films arising from a multi-year deal between Higher Ground and Netflix, Crip Camp will tell the story of a summer camp for teenagers with disabilities in the 1970s near Woodstock, N.Y. that helped springboard the disability rights movement.
