the screening

Proudly presented in partnership with Minus18 & Marymead Autism Centre.

Join us for a sensory-friendly screening of WHO I AM followed by a Q&A with the film’s heroes Aether and Anthea, and the film’s director Naomi Ball.

These non-profit community organisations will be receiving the fundraising donation:

Minus18 – Australia’s charity improving the lives of LGBTQIA+ youth via life-affirming events, leadership programs, and education for the whole community.

Marymead Autism Centre – celebrating diversity, promoting awareness and inclusion, and supporting Autistic people and their families.

A transgender and Autistic teen learns to be who they are with the help of their own original animated characters, The Fallens.

WHO I AM is a touching story of a transgender teen who is also Autistic. 14-year-old Charlie (pronouns he/him/it) finally comes out to his mum, setting him on a path of navigating the first steps of transition – the social transition – and ultimately settling into his identity with a new name, Aether. Meanwhile his mum Anthea goes on her own journey to embracing her child for all that he is.

The story is told through observational moments, intimate reflections from the whole family, and Aether’s own original animated characters, The Fallens, coming to life.

Coming to cinemas in limited release from June 2023.
