We’re pleased to present the first Autism Friendly Screening at LSFF 2016 in partnership with Oska Bright Film Festival on Monday 11th January.
LSFF
is aware that going to a general performance of a film can be a
challenge for audiences on the autism spectrum or with sensory or
learning disabilities. To promote greater social inclusion, we're
excited to host an adapted screening of a selection from our New Shorts
programmes.
The lights will be kept on at a low level, with
reduced sound levels and an allowance for increased levels of movement
and noise. This screening is suitable for all audiences.
