As a child, Owen Suskind stopped speaking and was diagnosed as having Autism Spectrum Disorder, but his love for Disney films led his family to develop an extraordinary way of communicating with him. Against medical advice, they helped him find his voice through mimicking and channelling Disney characters. Oscar®-winning director Roger Ross Williams has made a joyous and mesmerising film that’s a celebration of difference, diversity and animation. 

For these screenings, low lights will be left on, the volume will be reduced, and it will be fine to move around and make noise. There will be no ads or trailers and the film will start at 11.30am. These subtle changes mean that people who have sensory difficulties have a more positive experience than they would in a traditional cinema setting.
