How many disabled filmmakers are shaping the films we celebrate at A-list festivals? Producer Samm Haillay set out to find the answer. The “Crip Count” is his ongoing longitudinal research tracking the representation of disabled writers, directors and producers across Sundance, Berlin, Cannes, Venice and Toronto.
Drawing on publicly available data, Haillay examines the structural barriers that continue to limit disabled filmmakers’ access to the industry’s most influential showcases. Join Samm as he unpacks the data, exposes the structural barriers holding disabled creatives back and opens up a conversation about what meaningful inclusion actually looks like in the screen industries.
