The stories of the residents in one of the oldest and largest Intellectual Developmental Disability institutions in the United States, as told by the people who lived, worked, and loved the place that hundreds of thousands called home. A story of segregation, abandonment, and the meaning of home. The facility, in it's closing, challenged society's perception of those with intellectual disabilities and ultimately fought for better rights; rights that are still being fought today.
