Episode Details

Joshua Sapan and Miranda Lee are here to talk about something truly special—the Marvels of Media Festival, a one-of-a-kind celebration of autistic and neurodivergent storytellers happening in NYC at the Museum of the Moving Image. Founded by Sapan and programmed by Lee, the festival showcases films, animation, virtual reality, and more—all created by neurodivergent artists pushing boundaries and redefining what storytelling looks like today. It’s not just a festival—it’s a platform, a movement, and a space where voices that are often overlooked are front and center.

In true Roundtable fashion, we get into the heart behind it all—why representation matters, how this festival is changing the industry, and the power of creating art from lived experience. From powerful short films to immersive experiences, this is about community, creativity, and making sure everyone gets to tell their story their way. And honestly? It’s inspiring, it’s necessary, and it’s exactly the kind of conversation we need right now.
