Despite being one of the best streaming services , Apple TV is more well
known for its original series like Severance , Pluribus and Widow's Bay , but historically it has been lacking when it comes to its movies. All except for CODA , which won Best Picture, Best Adapted Screenplay, and Best Supporting Actor at the Oscars in 2022. Following on from CODA's huge success, director Sian Heder returns with Being Heumann . Latest Videos From TechRadar Watch full video here:

This new movie follows the life of Disability Rights Activist Judith Heumann, where she fought tirelessly to improve society so disabled people could live more independently, and pushed back against discrimination.
