Dyslexia is a neurological learning disability affecting 15-20% of the world's population, causing reading, writing, and spelling struggles despite average intelligence. Despite being diagnosable, many remain undiagnosed and struggle with self-esteem. The documentary Embracing Dyslexia tackles the issue by sharing emotional stories of parents, educators, and adult dyslexics, highlighting the importance of early screening, effective tutoring, and accommodations.
