VIEWFINDER

SANDRA ALLAND & LISA MATTOCKS (UK)

Part of the Sick! Festival Brighton.

Sandra Alland and Lisa Mattocks have created five new short documentaries. In this collection of films, disabled and D/deaf people are taking back the camera or the stage or the poem, moving away from the pity, tragedy or supercrip inspiration narratives that are so common when speaking about disability – we’re telling our own stories in our ways. In addition, Sandra and Lisa have co-curated
the Viewfinder programme of ten short films, Unapologetic Self-Portraits, with SICK! Festival.

Viewfinder is an initiative led by Disability Arts Online and supported via funding from Arts Council England and Esmée Fairbairn Foundation, to fuel the development and distribution of socially engaged arts practice.

All films captioned – selected films with audio description and BSL.

From Monday 20 March to Saturday 25 March from 11am to 9pm
