Animation, poetry, and vocal soundscape come together in an exploration of the everyday ableism faced by disabled people.
Animation, poetry, and vocal soundscape come together in an exploration of the everyday ableism faced by disabled people.
A character with albinism leads us through three different supermarket experiences. In the first scenario, she visits a pre-pandemic supermarket where she meditates on the inaccessibility of public space, and the complex systems that disabled people have to create for themselves in order to live in an able-bodied world.
In the second scenario, we see how lockdown has disrupted these systems and further complicated her relationship with her surrounding environment.
The film ends in a 鈥榙ream supermarket鈥 - an entire reworking of what we have come to accept as the norm, a hopeful vision for an inclusive future.
