THE STIMMING POOL (12A)

Dir: The Neurocultures Collective (Sam Chown Ahern, Georgia Bradburn, Benjamin Brown, Robin Elliott-Knowles, Lucy Walker) & Steven Eastwood | UK | 2024 | 70 mins

Documentary

Five neurodiverse artists create a singular visual project that gives a fascinating glimpse into their experience. 

Skip the test, drop the mask, reclaim the space… An experimental, at times fantastical hybrid feature film co-created by the Neurocultures Collective and filmmaker Steven Eastwood, The Stimming Pool is an alternative and artistic take on what it’s like to live with neurodivergence in a world often hostile to those who are different. 

Shot on crisp, beautiful 16mm film by Aftersun cinematographer Gregory Oke, this artful film illuminates the possibilities of a world informed by neurodiverse vision.
