Melody Brooks, a sixth grader with cerebral palsy, has a quick wit and a sharp mind, but because she is non-verbal and uses a wheelchair, she is not given the same opportunities as her classmates. When a young educator notices her student’s untapped potential and Melody starts to participate in mainstream education, Melody shows that what she has to say is more important than how she says it.
“Out of My Mind,” a Disney Original movie based on the best-selling novel of the same name by Sharon M. Draper, premieres November 22 on Disney+.
