E&OE 

Disability, Not What One Expects

Speaker (in Heb.): Dr. Nili Broyer

Code of the Freaks

Dir.: Salome Chasnoff
| 68 minutes

Code of the Freaks is a radical reframing of the use of disabled characters in film. The film counters these formulaic entertainments with a powerful corrective: it dares to imagine a cinematic landscape that takes disabled people seriously.

The Freedom for Sexual Definition from Within a Disability

Speaker (in Heb.): Rona Soffer

Come As You Are

Dir.: Richard Wong
| 106 minutes

Three young men with disabilities flee their overbearing parents on a road trip to a brothel in Montreal in order to lose their virginity, assisted by their tough-as-nails nurse driver. Equally hilarious and heartwarming, this film is inspired by the incredible true story of Asta Philpot.

New Waves in Mental Health

Speaker (in Heb.): Dr. Renana Stanger Elran

On the Adamant

Dir.: Nicolas Philibert
| 109 minutes

Nicolas Philibert’s recent documentary, which won the Golden Bear at the 2023 Berlin International Film Festival, follows patients and caregivers at a unique psychiatric facility located in the middle of the Seine River in central Paris.

Why Was Richard III Determined to be the Villain?

Speaker (in Heb.): Nira Moser

The Lost King

Dir.: Stephen Frears
| 108 minutes

When Philippa Langley sees a production of Richard III, she comes to believe that his depiction of manipulative and cruel is wrong and sets out to clear the reputation of the historical character. Stephen Frears presents a charming dramedy, while Sally Hawkins is tremendous in the lead role.
Course

Choice and It's Meaning for People with a Disability

Speaker (in Heb.): Prof. Shirli Werner

Vincent Wants to Sea

Dir.: Ralf Huettner
| 96 minutes

Vincent is institutionalized in hopes of overcoming his Tourette’s Syndrome. He ultimately escapes with two fellow patients to bury his mother’s ashes in the seas off Italy, as was her dying wish. A charming and captivating film.
