VIEW FROM THE FLOOR is a memoir about sex, drugs and rock-n-roll without legs, as told through the life experiences of singer, songwriter, and crip commentator Mindie Lind. Through animation, music, and Mindie’s distinctive voice, this feature documentary will provide a radical, irreverent, and starkly personal perspective on disability, ableism, and exploitation.
Please join us at Northwest Film Forum on August 18th as we premiere the animated short, View from the Floor, a memoir about sex, drugs and rock-n-roll without legs, on the big screen! There will also be a live performance of the movie’s theme song from Mindie Lind, a Q&A with the creators, and opportunities to get involved and support our efforts to get the full feature made. Drinks & concessions will be available!
Animated short is a proof-of-concept. Proof-of-concept means, in this case, a 5 minute animated sample that showcases the concept, story, tone and themes of our full-length feature.
