As a disabled filmmaker it's so great to see Otto Baxter film hit the screens.

I salute the whole team involved in making it.

Goes to show when you see the human, not the disability, innovative stories emerge.

Disability can be a competitive advantage.

Loved showing OttoBaxterMovie to industry audience. Beautifully hosted by BAFTA & brilliantly moderated by Ruth Madeley. Thanks to Otto Baxter it was pro one of the sweariest Q+As on that stage. To quote Otto’s closing statement ‘people with Down Syndrome are fucking equal’.

Check out The Puppet Asylum when it comes to Sky on September 23rd - love this directorial debut from Otto Baxter 💫 can’t wait to see what he does next.
