We are accepting submissions for our Film Festival and conference “Showing myself, seeing myself” to be held on 6th March, 2027
In 2027 we will be holding a conference alongside our usual screening of films by disabled and neurodivergent filmmakers.
Films can be submitted through FilmFreeway or Festhome. We are also inviting papers and proposals for panels or workshops.

“(Lived Perspectives) was a unique and necessary event, where as a disabled filmmaker I felt validated and understood. I was able to articulate deeply about my work without the slightest hint of ableism or patronising or tokenistic curation. It was a rare and uplifting space indeed. I loved it!”
Duncan Ragg, director
“This is how you build a community.”
