Best documentary short subject A Love Song for Latasha Sophia Nahli Allison and Janice Duncan
13News spoke with Doug Roland, the writer and director of Feeling Through, which made history featuring the first deafblind actor, Robert Tarango, in a film. It s been amazing to not only experience Robert s joy of getting to fulfill his boyhood dream of becoming an actor, but also to be one piece of the growing movement of authentic representation and having more roles for people who are disabled and casting disabled actors in those roles, Roland said.

Oscar nominated short films are available through the Fredonia Opera House.
The 1891 Fredonia Opera House Performing Arts Center has launched its latest round of films that can be streamed online in the Opera House Screening Room, featuring the 2021 Oscar-nominated short films.
The Opera House Screening Room provides movies and other digital programming online to its patrons in the wake of the continued COVID restrictions which have restricted the theatre’s opening. The cost of streaming the films varies, depending on the film. The revenue generated is shared by the Opera House and the film studios. “Since we are not yet reopened, this is one way of providing our patrons with access to programming, and of generating income for the Opera House to help ensure its survival,” says Opera House Executive Director Rick Davis.
