Jesus Figueroa, @Thisfunktional of ThisFunktional.com, talks with Filmmaker Cameron S. Mitchell about documentary film DISPOSABLE HUMANITY.
CSM Productions’ and Cameron Mitchell’s poignant documentary feature Disposable Humanity will make its highly anticipated world premiere at the 2025 Slamdance Film Festival (February 20-26).
This eye-opening film delves deep into the dark history of the Nazi Aktion T4 program, where hundreds of thousands of disabled individuals deemed "unworthy of life" were systematically exterminated, highlighting the ongoing relevance of this tragic chapter in history in discussions about disability, worth, and societal perceptions of marginalized communities.
Executive produced by Steve Way (Co-star of Hulu’s Ramy), Disposable Humanity follows Cameron Mitchell’s family, who are Disability Studies scholars and filmmakers that have researched the Nazi Aktion T4 program since the 1990s.
Through conversations with memorial directors, disabled people, and relatives of T4 victims, they uncover the horrifying truth: that the Nazi Aktion T4 program, was in fact the program where the Nazis trained killing staff and designed the apparatus of mass murder that led to the Holocaust.
Disabled people were the first victims to be killed under the Third Reich and in this investigative documentary, the Mitchells reveal how this history has been covered over and erased from international public memory.
