True Value is a groundbreaking documentary that is gripping and educational. Directed by Alexander Freeman, it's a film that asks a haunting question: What is the true value of a human life, and how do we measure it, especially when it comes to people with disabilities and employment. Narrated by Oscar-winner Chris Cooper and enriched with the insight of Marianne Leone, the film blends personal testimony with urgent social critique. True Value also confronts darker truths: the growing debates around euthanasia and assisted suicide, and the harrowing reality of people with disabilities being murdered by their own caregivers—crimes often minimized or excused by society through narratives of “mercy” or “burden.” These tragedies expose the lethal consequences of a culture that too often devalues disabled lives.
