All About It

Until 20 is a documentary about James Ragan, who was diagnosed with osteosarcoma and lived to the age of 20. The filmmakers documented the final year of his life, and James recorded voiceover narration for the film. James and his family were filled with love, and I was very inspired by his optimism, strength, and grace (see some of the coverage by Forbes.com, MSNBC, and Houston Chronicle).

The film premiered at the 2015 Austin Film Festival, and also played at festivals in Virginia, Palm Beach, Long Island, San Antonio, Houston, as well as at Cinequest and the 2016 European Independent Film Festival. It’s available on Amazon Prime Video.
