“(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.”
