Fitting
Producer
FITTING explores the relationship between the director, an amputee, and her prosthetist, by their contrasting experiences during the making of a prosthetic leg. It asks what it means for to create an extension to someone else’s body, and the impact this has on both maker and amputee. Demystifying this unfamiliar space and experience for the viewer, and questioning stereotyping and prejudice widely seen within our society’s consideration of body image.
