Cassandra is a 72-minute Canadian drama about Seymour, an autistic musician whose world shifts when his support worker leaves. The film follows Seymour, a non-verbal autistic musician, as he navigates life after his trusted support worker moves on. What sets Cassandra apart is who made it. Autistic artist Clayton Ducharme plays Seymour, composed the original score, and helped shape the story alongside director Ben Bergeron. The production team included neurodivergent members at every level, which was a direct response to the 'nothing about us without us' principle that guided the project from the start.
