“Code of the Freaks” (Promotional still)

A blistering critique of Hollywood representations of disabled characters, “Code of the Freaks” gives the mic to some of Hollywood’s most incensed and ignored critics—people with actual disabilities.

“Code of the Freaks” is also a reference to the disability community itself, which in spite of a history fractured by institutionalization, isolation and segregation, has emerged to build a political and cultural movement.

Followed by an online discussion with director Salome Chasnoff.

This is a special pre-premiere screening co-presented with the Cambridge Public Library and the Cambridge Commission for Persons with Disabilities. Co-presenting outreach partners: City of Boston Commission for Persons with Disabilities, Kristen McCosh, The Ruderman Family Foundation and Boston Women’s Film Festival.
