Todd - Short Film
WINNER - Industry Choice Award, Colosoul Shorts Film Festival 2015
Caley Bishop has been juggling the full time care of her autistic brother Todd, and is struggling to stay afloat in an expensive world. With financial pressure beginning to mount, and Caley trying desperately to understand Todd’s condition, her outlook begins to deteriorate. As Todd's behaviour becomes harder to control, Caley is forced to confront the truth that she has denied from Todd and herself.

    Todd should’ve been left on his own that day and she should’ve called the disability service to put him in a home.

    Wow, no punches pulled in that one. There is one thing, the state carps about families ‘dumping sick’ onto them because that can get very costly; the families that haven’t the skills & or are hampered financially require skills & support. Did you know that community based solutions can and have provided skills knowledge and resource sharing that improves the social fabric and boosts productivity by involving more people and organizations for better all around outcomes. Build on what works by conversation and collaboration and costs go down as well. I’ll lay odds that for roughly the cost of one manager’s salary equivalent a community day school run with volunteers could solve a lot of difficulties for several families. Plus provide great interaction and growth opportunities for individuals. Plenty of those who have set up such would be glad to provide knowledge share. All the best Drew Gibbons

      @@BenKlassen1 autism has always existed, people are just being diagnosed more now. It doesn’t mean it didn’t exist, they were just undiagnosed and labeled as weird. And yeah genetic mutations take millions of years, that’s why there have always been autistic people. You do know the guy who said vaccines caused autism was proven to have made the whole study up, and wasn’t even a doctor in that field! Please do research (not from Facebook) and make sure your sources are reliable. Using terms like “epidemic” to describe a difference in neurology is so incredibly ableist I don’t even know what to say. As an autistic person I am so utterly disgusted people like you still exist.

      This is such a fucking ableist and misinforming thing to say. Vaccines don’t cause autism you fucking dumbass. But since you’re a fucking dumbfuck I’ll atleast try to educate you on autism. Autism is a genetic and neurodevelopmental disorder basically you’re born with autism. So no if you get one vaccine you’re not going to be autistic, so stop your stupid, anti vaccine BS and research a little more about autism.
