Invisible Manners
Synopsis
This project has been developed closely with the charity's community in order to illustrate the many emotions and challenges an individual with an invisible condition can face on a daily basis. By using a mixture of animation, photography, and narrated lines read by stars from both outside and inside of our community, the film hopes to raise awareness of both Niemann-Pick disease(s) and invisible conditions more broadly...as "not all that you can see, is everything that is there"…and there are far more similarities than differences when it comes to the lived experiences of those affected by rare, genetic and/or invisible conditions.

Daughters of the Late Colonel
Director: Elizabeth Hobbs
Year: 2026
After the death of their ill-tempered and controlling father, middle-aged sisters Constantia (Con) and Josephine (Jug), find themselves at a loss. The story takes place in 1920 and is set within a European townhouse where Constantia and Josephine have always lived with their domineering father. The two sisters' mother died when they were young, and they have spent their lives enslaved to the rhythm and routine of Father’s house. Even in death they fear their father and imagine him springing out of the wardrobe or shouting at them from his grave. Over time, their father’s control diminishes and they find comfort in taking part in peaceful activities in each other’s company. An unexpected visitor also helps them to find the courage to begin their lives anew. A merry, rude, and lyrical, animated adaptation of the modernist short story written by Katherine Mansfield in 1920. In this adaptation the sisters will begin to assert themselves in joyful, unexpected ways that could only be depicted in animation.
