Show Notes

This week, we have a special guest episode from the Autism Through Cinema podcast. David Hartley, Georgia Bradburn, John-James Laidlow, and Ethan Lyon look back on the films they’ve featured so far and discuss everything from autistic characters on screen to how filmmakers can make film sets more inclusive to whether there’s an autistic aesthetic for filmmakers.

We’ll then hear from Professor Janet Harbord and filmmaker Steven Eastwood about the Autism Through Cinema research project at Queen Mary University.
