About this Short Film
"The Bridge" by Susan Cornell and John Rado (Australia, 2025) is a short film presented in the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival. It examines experiences around bullying, group dynamics and intellectual disability, while touching on mental health, kindness and suicidal themes. The filmmakers offer a thoughtful, intimate portrait that prompts reflection rather than answers. It sits within the festival’s programme as a work that highlights complexity and compassion in relationships involving disability. Viewers should be aware the film contains material relating to self harm and distress. We recommend watching with support if needed, and welcome post-screening conversation about the issues it raises.
