No Limits Community Showcases and Live Screenings

The No Limits Pilot Creative Programme offers local teachers of dance, drama or performance hands-on experience of incorporating inclusive practice into the classroom. The programme is conducted in collaboration with Candoco Dance Company, a world-leading, professional inclusive dance organisation based in the UK.

In September 2025, selected teachers joined a two-week intensive training course on methodologies for inclusive teaching and performance practices led by members of Candoco Dance Company. After the training, teachers are offered hands-on experience working with people with disabilities at a local community centre. This January at Tai Kwun, they will bring us three pieces of performances. Details as follow:

1. Participating Unit: Lok Chi Association (Lam Tin)
2. Participating Unit: St. James' Settlement Jockey Club Artspiration Academy
3. Participating Unit: Hong Chi Association

Time: 2pm – 2:45pm

Teachers and representatives of the community centres will share with us their journey in the No Limits 2026 Pilot Creative Programme, as well as their insights on inclusive teaching practices.

Time: 2:45pm – 3:15pm

A feature documentary about human strength, optimism and love

Directed by Riccardo Servini and Nick Taussig, A Space in Time is an unflinchingly intimate portrait of one family’s struggle to transcend a fatal childhood disease, and an unsentimental celebration of the disabled life.

Nick and Klara Taussig have two sons, Oskar and Theo, both born with Duchenne muscular dystrophy, an illness that currently has no cure. Through interviews, candid home videos, and reflections from the boys, their parents and others living with Duchenne, A Space in Time shows its subjects surviving, thriving and grieving through the transitions of the disease. As we witness the complexities and challenges of living with a muscle wasting disease, and the determination and resilience of those affected, we are also asked to consider the ways in which individuals can be disabled more by their environment than their condition.

A Space in Time is the second feature documentary directed and produced by Riccardo Servini and Nick Taussig. Supported by the British Film Institute, it was released theatrically, received a Grierson nomination for Best Single Documentary, and won the Award of Excellence at the 2021 Impact DOCS Awards.

Time: 3:15pm - 4:50pm

A surprising, heart-wrenching film about love, loss and dementia

An award-winning feature film about love, loss and dementia set in remote rural Ontario, written and directed by Canadian director Sarah Polley, and starring Julie Christie, Gordon Pinsent and Olympia Dukakis.

Unsentimental, heart-wrenching and superbly acted, Away From Her tells the story of married couple Grant and Fiona. Together for over 40 years, they are adjusting to the effects of Fiona’s advancing early-onset Alzheimer’s disease as it erodes her memory and sense of self. Weaving in and out of the past, just as Fiona’s memory glimmers and fails, the film quietly reveals the complexities of their marriage and the situation they face. After Fiona insists that Grant move her to a retirement home, their relationship changes in surprising and poignant ways.

Away from Her is the critically acclaimed first feature film of Canadian actor-director Sarah Polley. Adapted from Alice Munro’s story “The Bear Came Over the Mountain” it debuted at the Toronto International Film Festival, won the Canadian Screen Award for Best Motion Picture and Achievement in Direction, and was nominated for the 2007 Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay.
