About this Short Film
We Can, by Timothy Liwonde (Malawi, 2021), arrives in the Focus on Ability programme as a quietly powerful short. It explores themes of adulthood, individual identity, physical disability and the role of teachers without presuming a singular narrative. The film invites viewers to consider everyday strengths and challenges through its images and tone, leaving space for personal reflection. Shot in Malawi and made by a filmmaker working across local contexts, We Can adds a distinct voice to this year’s selection. A concise, thoughtful piece, it sits well alongside other films that celebrate ability and diverse ways of being.
