Verisimilitude

An unemployed disabled actor is frustrated at how all the disabled acting jobs go to non-disabled actors. Out of work, she is engaged as an advisor to a spoilt up and coming British film star, showing him how to be disabled for his latest role. A role which might just win him a BAFTA…

Funded by BFI and Uncertain Kingdom, Verisimilitude was praised by film critics upon release and has screened at 10 BAFTA-qualifying film festivals including Slamdance, Palm Springs and London Short Film Festival. It was also screened on BBC2.
