About this Short Film
Helina (2021) by Temesgen Kahsaye, Ethiopia Helina joins this year’s Focus on Ability lineup with a quiet, observant approach to ideas of perception and inclusion. Working with images and moments rather than grand statements, the film invites viewers to consider how people experience space, support and social life. It reflects on physical mobility and the ways groups and young adults relate to difference, offering gentle prompts rather than easy answers. Shot with care, the work complements other festival selections that celebrate ability and everyday achievement. An intimate piece, Helina encourages audiences to look again and to notice the small gestures that shape how we see one another.
