Film Screening: My Beautiful Stutter
Film Screening: My Beautiful Stutter
March 10, 2026
Join us Friday, April 3, 2026 for a documentary film screening and panel discussion hosted by the Ann Arbor Stuttering Awareness and Research Club (A2STAR) and the U-M Speech Neurophysiology Lab.
My Beautiful Stutter is a critically acclaimed documentary that follows a small group of kids ages 9 to 18 who stutter. Though they hail from different parts of the U.S. and have different backgrounds, these young people share similar social and emotional challenges—especially at school where they are often interrupted, avoided, or discouraged from speaking because of their stutter. After meeting one another at an arts-based program at The Stuttering Association for the Young (SAY) in New York City, they begin to experience an incredible transformation. Despite years of bullying and stigmatization, they learn a revolutionary idea at the heart of SAY: that it's okay to stutter.
