About this Short Film
Inverse World (Yohannes Baye, Ethiopia, 2023) is a short film included in the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival. It examines themes around perception, mental health and the everyday impact of medication, while touching on issues such as assault, bullying and theft. The film offers a viewpoint that asks audiences to consider how group dynamics and young adult experiences shape understanding and response. Baye's work sits within the festival programme by highlighting experiences relevant to people with disability, without prescribing a single interpretation. Expect a thoughtful, sometimes uneasy watch that prompts conversation about care, responsibility and how we see one another.
