The Stimming Pool feature film Score
Premiere CPH:DOX / LFF
The Stimming Pool is an experimental and sometimes magical hybrid film with a drifting form. The curiosity of the autistic camera discovers a relay of subjects who stray through the world, revealing environments often hostile to autistic experience - such as a hectic wall-of-noise workplace and a crowded pub - and quiet spaces that offer respite from them. Sometimes the camera wanders off without any guide, finding an ancient woodland, an abandoned testing centre, even a fragment from an animated zombie film with a grimy B-Movie soundtrack, set in the American civil war…
The project’s co-direction and apprenticeship structure offers opportunity, inclusion and visibility for neurodivergent creatives, who are often obliged to explain their identity to audiences rather than play a central part in how representations are formed.
