Aias Dalman is a 12-year-old actor and screenwriter from Vancouver, BC, Canada. While he is able to play neurotypical characters, as an openly Autistic actor, it has been a great joy for Aias to bring authentic representation to the screen. His most recent Autistic character roles were in the feature film "When Time Got Louder" alongside Willow Shields, Elizabeth Mitchell, and Lochlyn Munroe, and as a Supporting Lead in the Lifetime feature film "Doomsday Mom" alongside Lauren Lee Smith, Marc Blucas, and Patrick Duffy. Scouted by Young Moviemakers Director Levente Mihalik while in a kindergarten science class, Aias spent the next several years working in Vancouver independent film both as an actor and writer before finally signing with a talent agent. An early prodigy in math and creative writing, by the age of 7 his screenplays had already won awards, including Best Film Overall at the Toronto International Film Festival's (TIFF) Young Filmmakers Showcase for "The Fortune Teller," as well as Best Narrative at the Calgary International Film Festival for "Teen Chick." His most recent work, "Tough Guy," was screened at over 40 film festivals internationally by 2020 and continues to circulate at festivals in 2021. While Aias loves acting; especially meeting the fascinating people on set, he aspires to someday have his own "Bill Nye" style Science Show and ultimately to give his own TED Talk on Neural Networks.
