About this Short Film
Quiescence, from Huntingtower School (Australia, 2024), is a short that explores themes of music, perception and ambition through the perspective of a hearing impaired teenager. Using the piano and the everyday reality of a hearing aid, the film considers how competition, achievement and personal dreams are experienced differently by individuals with sensory disability. Quiet and observant in tone, it asks audiences to rethink what they hear and how they see another person’s viewpoint. As part of the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival, Quiescence offers a thoughtful, human glimpse into school life and the varied ways young people negotiate talent and identity.
