Buuza, by Moses Kizza (Uganda, 2023), offers a quiet, observant look at perception and possibility around physical disability. The short film explores themes including amputation, artificial limbs, wheelchairs, young adulthood, prejudice and stigma without prescribing a single message. It highlights the small achievements and everyday challenges that shape opportunities and motivation, and it encourages viewers to reconsider stereotypes and viewpoints about people with disability. As part of the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival, Buuza contributes a compassionate, human perspective that celebrates ability, resilience and the range of experiences within groups and communities.
