New Film: Holding in The Storm

I am happy to announce a new dramatic film to promote community acceptance and inclusion of adults who are different because of disability such as Autism. Launch planned for 29 March 2014.  

Announcing the production of a short dramatic film titled HOLDING IN THE STORM: MY LIFE WITH AUTISM the goal of which is to increase community acceptance and inclusion of people with Autism or similar disabilities, especially adults.

The direction and production team is led by Christine Zorn of Pan Video Services. A short preview of the film is now on youtube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uiA9-Ufz69k Editing and post production tasks will take the next 4-5 months.

This new film is inspired by the thoughts and words of the Bridges-Over-Barriers communicators, for whom Christine produced the documentary video In Our Own Words in 2010.

Guelph Services for the Autistic is raising the funds for the project and will distribute the film on DVD together with a Discussion Guide that will continue online.

We plan to host the film launch to mark World Autism Awareness Day next spring. We expect there will be a premiere showing at the University of Guelph Arboretum Centre on 29 March 2014.

Please share this news and the youtube link with any people likely to be interested. You may post comments and questions on youtube.
