About this Short Film
Noah Micheal's Beyond The Obscurity (Australia, 2024) is presented at the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival. The film explores themes of achievement, isolation and disappointment while reflecting on perception, prejudice and stigma linked to ASD and other cognitive processing differences. Through images and moments tied to drawing, gaming and graffiti, it asks us to rethink assumptions about teenagers and young people with disability. The work is understated and observant, allowing viewers to bring their own viewpoint. This short sits neatly in our programme, offering a quiet but powerful prompt to believe in ability rather than stereotype.
