Stutter School | TVO Docs
Most of us don’t think twice about asking someone for directions or ordering a meal, but what if the words just won’t come out? This documentary follows four brave stutterers from different backgrounds, the youngest aged just 12 and the oldest 64, on a once-in-a-lifetime make-or-break journey to find their voice. Over four confronting, intensive and emotionally charged days, they will be pushed to a breaking point. Will they succeed? And how could it transform their lives? With unprecedented access to a ground-breaking speech program in Australia, Stutter School offers privileged access to the Mcguire program, a course run by stutterers for stutterers. For these four new students, it is a last-ditch bid to try and gain control of their lives. For each participant, the stakes are enormous. What will the four days bring? Will they succeed? And what difference will it make in their lives? Can a four -day program offer long lasting change?
