ANGEL’S REACH
A Documentary Short by Filmmaker Al Germani
We have around us many who are introduced to the “Reality of Mortality” at much too young an age,
way before the time when, eventually, we all must confront the frustration and helplessness of our
aging physical body and the need to calculate our own life’s worth.
Often these individuals embrace and rise above this challenge and struggle with courage, tenacity,
determination and a life force way beyond their years.
I believe that these are the Angels among us.
Those of us who are open to allowing ourselves to be influenced by these “Angels” and who use this
intimacy and inspiration to fuel our own personal growth and the evolution of integrity and dignity
in our own lives – Those of us are then, in the Angel’s Reach.
Julianne is one of these Angels.
This Documentary Short Film is an artistic presentation of a 14 year old girl, Julianne Martin,
who, along with the help and love of her parents, Christiane and Scott Martin, and her dance teacher
and choreographer of 10 years, Barbara Rinaldo, continues this ongoing inspirational journey integrating her love of dance, her love of life, and the challenge of cerebral palsy. ____ Al Germani
