About this Short Film
50 Lomi, directed by Alemu Asmamaw (Ethiopia, 2022), is presented at the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival. While brief, the film sensitively explores themes of kindness, community and physical disability. It features people of different ages, including adults, teenagers and children, and includes situations where wheelchairs are present. Rather than prescribing a single message, 50 Lomi invites viewers to reflect on everyday interactions and the strengths people bring to group life. This work sits comfortably within the festival’s programme, offering a thoughtful, human portrayal that highlights ability and shared experience in a way that is neither didactic nor sentimental.
