Typical?

Synopsis

A call-to-action short film that uses verbatim dialogue from disabled actors told from their lived experiences. The film unfolds through vignettes of the main characters, as we watch them smash stereotypes and reveal societal barriers, whilst breaking the fourth wall to reveal their inner most thoughts.
