Bring on the feature film.

A brilliantly directed and powerful film, lead by a great leading actor in Tommy Jessop. Good to see a character and actor with down sydrome in a film like this. Really hope this gets made into full length film.

admirable

Well crafted in each aspect, proposing provocative lines and fair atmosphere, reminding Syndrome Down cases and using it in wise manner, it is just a clever film for each scene. A film about brotherhood, love, justice/revenge and powerful twist. Short, just admirable

Don't assume you know.

So pleased that a person with challenges has been given a pivotal role. As a lover of short stories I really appreciate the tightness of this short film.

I want more!

What a refreshing change to see learning disabled actors in key roles in Ben Reid's short film Innocence. Tommy Jessop is convincing in the lead and takes on this challenging role with great aplomb. Ben Reid has bucked the trend by writing this complex short and casting it with true diversity! I cannot wait to see the feature film

Wissenswertes
INNOCENCE was inspired by the writer/director Ben Reid's younger brother, Tom, who has Down syndrome.

The brothers share a deep love of the crime genre. However, the more crime films Tom and Ben watched, the more Tom became aware that the heroes in these films never looked like him. Neither did the villains (and Tom loves a villain). When they did occasionally see a character with Down syndrome, they were often the victim - poor souls, wrongly accused. Never the lead protagonist, choosing their own destiny, rather than having it foisted upon them.

This drove Ben to make INNOCENCE, giving his brother the character he's always been denied and shining a light on the fact people with Down syndrome are more capable and intelligent than most people believe.
