Autism at the Festival

We arrange screenings for the individuals on the autism spectrum in a half-dark venue, with low voice. There aren’t any trailers or commercials screened before the film. The audience can bring food&drink and they are able to move around the cinema if they like. The film of this year is The Jungle Bunch which tells the story of the struggle of the jungle community against Koala Igor. 

For those who like to take a closer look: The Party

The Virtual Reality (VR) which was included in the Festival program for the first time last year hosts The Party this year, which gives a POV insight into the experiences of Leila, a 16-year-old with autism. The VR experiences will be experienced at the foyer of the Festival venues for those who would like to take a closer look.
