In this episode of the Curious and Cultured podcast, we examine how neurodivergence is portrayed on screen—where films have made meaningful strides and where they still fall short. We explore examples of characters who moved the conversation forward and those who relied on oversimplified or inaccurate tropes. Through personal reflection and critical discussion, we talk about why authentic representation matters and how stories change when neurodivergent voices help tell them. This is a conversation about the future of inclusive filmmaking—one that honors the full complexity of neurodivergent experiences.
