Midwest Film Festival's (MFF) June First Tuesdays event will feature Salome Chasnoff's CODE OF THE FREAKS. This documentary challenges the realism of Hollywood's portrayals of disabled people throughout decades of western filmmaking.
On June 7th we hope you will join us for an important conversation and examination. The feature film will be accompanied by the short, BEYOND DISABILITY: THE FE FE STORIES, plus a special tribute to writer-producer Susan Nussbaum.
