This year, the first MINDS film festival was held in Singapore. The Movement for the Intellectually Disabled of Singapore does a lot of good work, and there was a good selection of films on the theme of intellectual disability. The opening film was My Feral Heart, starring a man with Down's Syndrome as a character with Down's Syndrome, and the documentary Monica & David was also in the line-up. Perhaps the most mainstream film was I am Sam. And for some reason, The Lawnmower Man was one of the selected films. The festival's site described it as "Probably the most socially thought-provoking science-fiction movie you will ever see".
