Wretches & Jabberers

Wretches and Jabberers is a movie about two guys named Tracy and Larry who have a hard time talking with their mouths. They use something called "augmentative and alternative communication" or AAC to talk with other people.

AAC is like a magic tool that helps Tracy and Larry speak with their hands, eyes or computers. That way, they can say words and sentences, just like you and me.

People who have trouble talking with their mouths might use AAC to help them say what they want, be heard and understood. AAC can come in different shapes and sizes. It can be a picture, a book, a sign, a keyboard or a voice device.

In the movie, Tracy and Larry travel around the world to meet other people who use AAC, just like them. They meet people who speak different languages, have different abilities and come from different cultures.

Tracy and Larry show that communication is important no matter who you are or where you come from. They teach us that everyone deserves a chance to speak up and be listened to.

So, Wretches and Jabberers is a movie that tells us about Tracy and Larry and how they use AAC to communicate, connect and make friends. It's a story of hope, determination and the power of communication.
