Join us for a look at the sparkle and struggles of
The Prospector – a non-profit movie theater with a mission of providing meaningful employment for people with disabilities.

Founded in 2007 at the Marlene Meyerson JCC Manhattan, ReelAbilities has grown from a single New York-based disability film festival into a leading independent nonprofit and the premiere global exhibitor of disability-focused cinema. Through groundbreaking award-winning films and innovative programming, we challenge stereotypes, celebrate authentic disability representation in movies, and expand opportunities for disabled creators worldwide.

What began as a single festival has evolved into a dynamic movement, spanning multiple initiatives, including our flagship film festival in NY, affiliate festivals across North America, Industry Summit, Reel Education, ReelAbilities at the Workplace, and ReelAbilities Stream-an accessible streaming platform for disability film. In 2024, we took a significant step forward by becoming an independent nonprofit, expanding our reach and impact even further.
