International Short Film Festival Berlin – INTERFORUM

Representations of people with disabilities still often draw on ableist imagery and stereotypes. Drawing on the Australian best-practice short film *The Knight*, this case study demonstrates what discrimination-sensitive working practices with disabled performers can look like in practice.


Dance, improvisation, personal storytelling and intimacy coordination become tools for authentic, accessible processes – and for stories in which sex, desire and identity are naturally part of the everyday realities of people with disabilities.
