April 5: Aaltra (France, 2004. Directors: Benoît Delépine and Gustave Kervern. 92 minutes) Critically acclaimed, irreverent wheelchair road movie by Delépine and Kervern, who wrote, directed, and co-star in the film. Aaltra shows a distinct flair for understated physical comedy and defiantly non-PC humor.

Director: Paul Sapin. 50 Minutes) British actor Mat Fraser joins disTHIS! for an exclusive Q&A session following the screening as viewers join him on an imaginative historical journey, filmed in part at Coney Island, exploring how and why disabled performers like himself survived by working in freak shows, traveling in carnivals across the U.K. and the U.S.

June 7: How's Your News (USA, 1999. Director: Arthur Bradford. 82 minutes) is a surprisingly unsentimental —and often hilarious—film about a group of disabled adults who set out to interview unsuspecting passers-by on a cross-country road trip from Maine to California. Director Arthur Bradford will be there to answer your questions following the screening! HYN doesn't challenge attitudes about disability, it explodes them, so much so that even Sundance was afraid to screen it.

Director: Waris Hussein. 91 minutes) is a semi-autobiographical tale based on the book, Trying to Grow by Firdaus Kanga which chronicles his experiences growing up as a gay, disabled Parsee in Bombay.

Director: Eli Kabillio. 84 minutes) Part documentary, part concert film and part traditional filmed Seinfeld-esque comedy starring disabled, gay comedian Greg Walloch, who joins us for the screening!

September 6: The Cost of Living (UK, 2004. Director: Lloyd Newsom, 35 minutes) A film like no other! Follow a disparate group of dancers (including one with no legs. Yes, you read that correctly...) as they clash with each other and the local community. Be dazzled in mind and eye by the narrative drive, bold dance pieces and unforgettable characters within.

October 4: Halloween Double Feature! Freaks (USA, 1932. Director: Tod Browning, 62 minutes) has the unique position of being both condemned and beloved by disability rights advocates. See why.
