‘Busting the Bias: Everyday Inclusion of Disabled People On and Behind the Screen’ part of the 2017 London Film Festival will be chaired by our very own Kim Tserkezie.
The event, to be held at the BFI Southbank on Friday 13 October, aims to “shine a light on the under-representation of disabled people” in the industry, and is to be attended by leading broadcasters and film bodies, as well as representatives from Equity and other campaigning organisations.
A new action group, ‘Disabling The Screen’, will also be launched at the event.
The BFI are running the event in partnership with 104 Films, Carousel and Beacon Hill Arts.
