A new bill in congress would require movie and
video content in theaters and airplanes to be captioned and described...
The Captioning and Image Narration to Enhance Movie Accessibility (CINEMA) Act would
amend Title III of the ADA to require movie theater complexes of two or
more theaters to make captioning and video description available for
all films at all showings. Video description is a process that allows an
individual who is blind or visually impaired to have access to the key
visual elements of the programming by contemporaneous audio narrated
descriptions of the actions, settings, facial expressions, costumes, and
scene changes during the natural pauses in the audio portion of the
programming, usually through headphones.
