Free Screening at NFSA
This Saturday, the NFSA presents a free screening of Kairos at Arc Cinema: a compelling drama about a gymnast-turned-boxer living with Down syndrome who finds himself reckoning with his own identity.
Kairos stars Chris Bunton, an actor and Olympic gold medal-winning gymnast who also lives with Down syndrome. The film challenges stereotypes about disability onscreen, inviting audiences to connect with the universal experiences of its characters – as discussed in this interview with Chris Bunton and writer-director Paul Barakat. The NFSA are honoured to have Chris joining them for a post-screening Q&A, alongside producer Carla Barakat.
