Crip Ciné brings documentaries and fiction films depicting the lives of disabled people to the big screen, as well as works by disabled filmmakers that challenge stereotypes surrounding disability. The themed programme, which has been part of Espoo Ciné for five years, now continues with free pop-up screenings on the Crip Ciné kylässä tour, which this year also includes, for the first time, Crip Ciné kylässä Junior, aimed at children. To celebrate the festival, we are visiting Espoo City Museum KAMU at WeeGee, where all four Crip Ciné kylässä programmes will be screened. The screenings are part of Espoo City Museum KAMU’s Free Friday programme.
The following films will be shown at the screening:
