About this Short Film
To be or not to be? by Zelalem Assefa Worku (Ethiopia, 2024) is a short film that presents a quiet, observant look at themes of physical disability, inclusion and employment. Working from images and moments rather than a fixed narrative, it invites viewers to consider the experiences of an amputee and a group navigating everyday life in a built environment. The film touches on youth, gratitude and the practical challenges of finding work, while leaving space for audiences to bring their own responses. A thoughtful addition to the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival, it continues our programme’s commitment to showcasing diverse abilities and honest perspectives.
