I loved that it gave Judy Heumann her due (many narratives of the 504 sit-in focus on Ed Roberts.) Watching decisions get made in community is lovely, since it's such an important skill that rarely makes it into media representation. I loved Corbett O'Toole narrative of the 504 sit-in in Fading Scars: My Queer Disability History, which emphasized how the Black Panthers were crucial to its success.
