About this Short Film

Jennifer Msumba’s The Fish Don't Care When It Rains (United States, 2025) is a short film that explores themes of anxiety, OCD, autism and cognitive processing difference through art and music. It offers a quiet, thoughtful look at mental health and inclusion, touching on the particular pressures faced by young adults. The film sits comfortably in the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival programme, where stories about ability, resilience and difference are celebrated. Expect a sensory, image-driven piece that invites reflection rather than explanation, and that contributes to a wider conversation about how we understand and support diverse minds.
