The Rose by Tara Coughlan

About this Short Film

The Rose by Tara Coughlan, directed by Vanessa Kellas (Australia, 2020) A tender short included in our Focus on Ability program, The Rose by Tara Coughlan explores themes of congenital disability, Down syndrome and the experience of a young adult during Covid. Shot with intimacy and moments of movement, the film considers isolation, connection and the ways we find expression, including dance and online encounters such as Zoom. It offers a thoughtful, human look at individual experience without claiming to speak for everyone. Festival audiences will find a quiet, honest contribution to conversations about ability, creativity and the small gestures that keep us connected.
