Named Best Documentary at this year's Cinequest Film Festival and fresh from the Montreal Film Festival, this autobiographical tour-de-force marks the debut for Chicago filmmaker and ALS patient Ben Byer. Byer, producer Rebeccah Rush and editor Tim Baron will all be in attendance for this premiere.
Variety calls INDESTRUCTIBLE "an intimate, lacerating, absorbing visual diary of the three-year onset of terminal disease Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) in aspiring filmmaker Ben Byer, INDESTRUCTIBLE is an immersive, edifying journey of acceptance, setback and strength."
