We were so honoured to have been invited to the premier of the new movie Ezra. Both our director and our chairperson were able to watch, and had this to say about the movie.
Ezra is a beautiful compelling narrative about a families journey with their Autistic son. It is complex but yet deeply empathetic whilst exploring our insecurities with difference in our so called 'Normal World'. As Chair of Autism SA and as a mother of an Autistic Teenager, I would highly recommend that everybody sees this thought provoking brilliant portrayal of a side of life that is depicted with emotional intelligence, integrity and love. - Rachel Tambo Jewellery
Ezra tells the story of a family's journey with autism. And it is not neatly packaged in pretty pink boxes, neither should it be. It touches lightly on the often overlooked generational narrative. What happened to the generation that wasn't diagnosed, and did not get support. How did this impact on family dynamics and the life story of the now grandparents and parents? An honest, gutsy - sometimes messy - portrayal of autism. - Juliet Carter
