The ReelAbilities Film Festival Los Angeles.

A two-day festival dedicated to promoting awareness and appreciation of the lives, stories, and artistic expressions of people with disabilities. We showcase new and classic films, conversations, and programs that explore, embrace, and celebrate the diversity of our shared human experience.

Hosted by the City of Los Angeles Department on Disability, in partnership with Grand Performances, this year’s 6th annual ReelAbilities Film Festival in Los Angeles will take place on May 4th and 5th in Downtown LA’s California Plaza.

The Department on Disability offers American Sign Language interpretation and real-time captioning for non-film programming including introductions, post-screening conversations, and panel discussions. The festival venue is wheelchair accessible. All movies feature open captioning, with optional audio descriptions available for enhanced accessibility.

This event is provided at no cost, courtesy of the generous contributions from our esteemed sponsors. We hope you’ll join us!
