SIMON

Director & Producer: James Louis Hedley,

 Richard Nockles

What’s it like to be Simon, a young man with Cerebral Palsy? You walk with a frame; you don’t have full control over your body; many find it difficult to understand you when you talk. Step into the world of SIMON in this short Virtual Reality film and witness the inspirational steps he takes every single day to combat unintentional, yet isolating judgment.

12-year-old Tatheer embarks on a week-long Police boot camp for girls from a social housing estate in Copenhagen. Far from home, deep in the woods, she navigates grueling rituals, elusive social dynamics, and personal setbacks to find her place in this tender and revealing coming-of-age story.
