Families Watch & Do

Online screening for d/Deaf and hard-of-hearing audiences to enjoy with their family and friends.

Film: Scarlett
Scarlett is a short animation depicting the inner struggle of a girl who lost a leg to Ewing Sarcoma, a bone cancer that occurs in mostly children. Amputation takes as much of an emotional toll as a physical one - especially for a child.

Created by THE STUDIO
Duration: 2.50 minutes

Film: The Spider and the Butterfly
A little white spider spends her days daydreaming about flying off to meet her other half from her hanging flower pot. Wishing the same company as the butterflies, she makes leaf wings to take off but falls in to the abyss of the grass bellow. There, she will meat a peculiar butterfly and together they'll find a way out of the grass and discover much more.
