DELTA 7EVEN was released on VICE TV in the spring of 2020. A year later it had been nominated for the Short Form Programme Award at the BAFTA's

The film has been screened at a number of film festivals internationally, and won both the Community and the Grand Jury Prize at the Scottish Mental Health Arts Festival 2020. Selected by a jury of film and mental health professionals, the Grand Jury Prize is the most prestigious award presented as part of the festival’s annual International Film Awards. Photographer, filmmaker and performance maker Jassy Earl, a member of the Awards jury said:

"DELTA 7EVEN was for me, an absolutely stand out film amongst this year’s nominees. It’s a film that celebrates neurodiversity, inclusion, friendship and music and becomes a film entirely different to the film it begins as. It is no straightforward navigation of grief and presents the complexities of joy and heartbreak in being human, together. It is too, an ode to the power of music as a site for community, language, expression and liberation."
