One of the best ever films on Dyslexia asks the question, is dyslexia a disability or an ability and goes onto to highlight research that suggests dyslexics will be the intellectual elite in the digital and visual picture packed world of tomorrow.

Silva Productions A video production Company serving the Midlands, Birmingham, Worcestershire, Herefordshire, Gloucestershire and Wales.

The first film ever made by Silva Productions back in 1999 but still popular today.

An Unwrapped Gift features Tom West, author of In the Minds Eye which examines the role of visual-spatial strengths in the lives of historical people who were dyslexic, including Albert Einstein, Winston Churchill and William Butler Yeats

The intimate and thought provoking video diaries of young people in the film have proved to be a very positive factor in families with teenagers coming to terms with their own dyslexia. Shown extensively throughout the UK and America the films narrative explains how we can learn from the distinctive strengths of dyslexics, rather than just focusing on their weaknesses and failures

Testimonials
People with dyslexia are given a voice in An Unwrapped Gift. It is not a video about how to treat dyslexia, it is a video celebrating the dyslexic difference.
Jo Todd, Key Learning

An Unwrapped Gift is a high quality film that makes a positive statement about a group of people who have historically been put through the mill by virtue of misunderstanding.
Stephanie Zinser Freelance Journalist (who writes regularly for the Daily Mail on health)

Everyone involved with education should see this film. Its message will benefit all, not just people with dyslexia.
Mark Haward, Mind Kind Education

Wonderful video, brilliantly put together. It explains to us the talents of our Grandson and gives us hope.
Frank and Audrey Silver, Salisbury

I am dyslexic and it's not a gift I nearly wanted to kill myself in school some fucking gift

[octoroonboy]

I have severe dyslexia I think of it as a gift I hated education but you cant think of it as only a curse or you will not get anywhere you need to think of the positiveness it has given you and the jump start you have been given over non dyslexics in surtone areas and it will help you the rest of your life education is a small part of your life it sucks fucking balls but when its done its done well thats only my option you may think differently i guess

[controverse smith]

if dyslexia is a gift its the most sadistic gift i have ever had. because of dyslexia i have managed to fall into a horrible set of daily mood swings witch make me feel like i want to die. due to this i am cutting EVERY DAY even as i type theirs dry blood on my arm.

Because no one told you that the educational system has a problem and not you. Because no one told you that left-brained people accuse what they cannot understand and have made a left-brained world just like themselves (which now is crushing before our eyes). Rethink dyslexia by re-discovering yourself.

Good comment! Steven Spielberg is dyslexic, so there is hope. We just need to change our bullying society and create jobs for gifted people.

[ButterflyLullabyLtd]

My daughter is proud to be dyslexic as it makes her the creative, funny, genius we all adore. Did you know Steven Spielberg is dyslexic? Our awful Education System would have destroyed her confidence completely if she did not ask me to homeschool her. The bullying these poor kids go through is awful. I hope I can continue to homeschool my daughter and keep her well away from the negative bully.

If dyslexia is a gift then cancer would be a gift too.

[Matt Walker]

your fucking retarded

[charisaob]

i was 1 of the worst students at school, one time my teacher clearly said that i will always depend on others & i will never do anything on my own. I have my own business, which depends on My imagination & My creativity. I am above average smart & i see things while others fail, I can win arguments with my bad grammar, because I get the point. Fuck my teacher, fuck the system, embrace your nature & you will be so happy!
