Description

Presented as part of ReelAbilities Film Festival: New York. Post-Screening Q&A with OKAY! band members, Director Mark Bone and Producer Andrew Simon.


East Coast Premiere

 

Four talented autistic musicians come together through their shared love of music and form the ASD Band. Rawan, Jackson, Spenser, and Ron shatter stereotypes about people with autism and navigate a world where they are often misunderstood. As they write, record, and perform their first album, they find strength in each other and the music.

ReelAbilities strives to include all people. All films are presented with open captions and all venues are accessible to mobility devices. Upon request, the following are available:

  • ASL interpretation
  • CART
  • Audio description
  • Hearing assist
  • Information in braille
