About this Short Film
Fragile X (Thibault Upton, Australia, 2019) explores themes around Fragile X syndrome, inherited disability and the experiences of children and teenagers. Tender and observant, the film considers how families, peers and support networks respond to medical difference without assuming a single point of view. It sits comfortably within Focus on Ability, inviting audiences to reflect on ability, care and belonging. By lingering on everyday moments and group interaction, Fragile X encourages quiet attention rather than tidy answers. A thoughtful short that opens up conversation about support, inheritance and growing up.
