The images also powerfully illuminate one of Iceland's core values, a basic educational policy that calls for schools "without differentiation." While parents are increasingly enrolling their children in conventional schools, there are those who continue to choose schools that specialize in teaching children with severe learning disabilities, believing that with experienced support and encouragement their children will gain independence and develop abilities that defy expectations. Related film screening: "Alexander" (A film by Martin Bell) and Q & A with Martin Bell and Mary Ellen Mark will be held on November 11, 2009 at 7 p.m. at the Nasher Museum of Art
