Anne Hathaway's latest film 'The Witches', has copped criticism from an unlikely group - disability advocates. It spawned the social media campaign #NotAWitch and has led to a wider conversation about the portrayal of limb difference and disability onscreen. So what is all the fuss about?


In this episode of News Fix, Dr Adrienne Epps from the Sydney Children's Hospital discusses how common limb differences are, actor Alex Barone talks about getting work in Hollywood with six fingers, and filmmaker Ashley Eakin talks about the representation of disabilities in film and on television.
