The Accessible Film Festival opens its doors on April 24 at Goethe-Institut Ankara. Running until April 30, the festival’s "For Children" section features the award-winning animation The Last Whale Singer, which follows the ocean-saving adventure of Vincent, an orphaned whale, and his deaf orca friend, Darya. This free screening is made accessible to all children with Turkish dubbing and Turkish captioned options.
The film's second screening will be held as an Autism-Friendly Screening, specifically designed to meet the needs of children and young people with autism. During this special session, the house lights are kept dimmed, the volume is lowered, and viewers are welcome to move around freely within the cinema hall.
