Join writers and producers Carrie Sandahl and Alyson Patsavas as they screen sections of their documentary film Code of the Freaks and offer an in-depth analysis of cinematic portrayals of disability and sexuality. From Coming Home (1978) to Children of a Lesser God (1986) to The Sessions (2012), disabled people’s sexuality both fascinates and frightens filmmakers and movie-goers alike. Sandahl and Patsavas bring their unflinching crip critique to expose and dismantle the work that these representations do.
