Few minor suggestions

Latest comment: 7 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

I had a few thoughts that might be useful if someone wants to do a little copyediting:

"During the film festival, they provide interpreters and narrators to allow for the attendees to appreciate the films." – This isn't going to be clear to people who have always appreciated films without benefiting from either interpreters (i.e., sign language interpreters for Deaf people) or narrators.
"the real pieces of disability" – this is perhaps an unclear phrase.
"The 2016 festival was celebrated as their thirtieth film festival" – I think that editors usually write that as "30th", and "celebrated" might not be the most WP:TONE-sensitive word that could be used there.
"In 2013, Superfest presented a special event to feature films where disability is mocked." – Since there's a lot more going on, it might be good to expand this sentence to include insensitivity.
