Filmmaker Miles Levin says he’s part of “an enormous, yet invisible community.”
Levin has epilepsy, and his short film, “Under the Lights,” is based on his experience living with the condition. It tells the story of a high school senior with epilepsy who goes to prom, just wanting to feel “normal.”
Levin will lead a conversation about the film on Wednesday for EPI, but first, we discuss it all on Connections.
Our guests:
- Miles Levin, director of “Under the Lights”
- Geoffrey Batterby, EPI camp participant
- Michael Radell, education coordinator and camp director for EPI
