Watch Party - Watch the Body programme along with other festival goers and get involved in the live chat!
As we move about our lives, our bodies are constantly changing, evolving with each new experience and passing day; we’re no longer the person we were five or ten years ago, despite occupying the same vessel. Each wrinkle, ache, and alteration we make to our bodies is a tale worth telling. Embrace your ever-changing body and inner storyteller with this intimate programme of films opening up the discussion about exploring gender and sexuality, the untold sacrifices of motherhood, our different abilities and disabilities, and how we as humans are continuing to advance with the constant rise of technology.
Technology for Talking is a bright cut out animation which introduces voice output communication aids and explains how and why some people talk using assistive technology. Using the electronic voice and perspective of its disabled filmmaker, it challenges stereotypes about what non-speaking disabled people can do and raises awareness of their contribution to society.
