About this Short Film
"Ability is a Choice" (Teagan Ryatt, Australia, 2025) is a short film that offers a thoughtful, humane look at life with Functional Neurological Disorder. Through intimate moments, it reflects on living with seizures, using a wheelchair and the everyday choices made by a young adult managing medical and physical disability. Teagan Ryatt presents an observation of resilience, frustration and small victories, inviting audiences to listen and learn rather than assume. Screened in the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival, this work fits our programme by highlighting personal experience and the varied ways people adapt and take control of their lives within health and disability contexts.
