“Few films successfully negotiate the tricky expansion from short to feature but Special People is a happy exception. Justin Edgar's adaptation of his 12 minute 2005 short builds on the original material without diluting any of its sharp humour and also provides a deeper sense of the characters and their lives. The story of a film-maker working with a group of disabled teenager is used to create a well-observed tale with a big heart. The result is very likeable. This is a very disciplined piece of work with the kind of trim running time that leaves audiences wanting more”
