‘Tiny Rays of Hope’ – Art, Music and Animal-Assisted Therapy for Autism – a documentary by Isha Badoniya

66319-offWe are please to share with you a new documentary on autism by Isha Badoniya.

Badoniya writes “Mentally disabled children and animals. Two highly neglected and marginalized sections of our society. But are there ways in which hope is being rekindled in the lives of both these children and animals? Is there a way in which we could use animals to help children with special needs? How can art and music be used in therapeutic ways to add a healing touch to their lives?

‘Tiny Rays of Hope’ is a humble attempt to address these very curiosities. On one level, it’s a documentary that provides a comprehensive overview about Art, Music and Animal-Assisted Therapy (AAT) for children with special needs. But on a deeper level, it’s a documentary that celebrates life, seen through the eyes of these ‘special’ children, who lie at the heart of it.


A heartfelt thanks to the staff, children (and their parents) of Sri Sarada Math and Manas Healing Centre Indore, and the mental healthcare community in Indore, without whom, this documentary wouldn’t have come to life.”
