About this Short Film
Fre-Hiwot (Firehiwot Tamiru, Ethiopia, 2023) presents a quiet, reflective consideration of themes such as accident, amputation, employment and personal viewpoint. Rather than offering a single story, the film draws attention to how medical and physical disability shape perception and opportunity for an adult individual. It asks viewers to notice everyday choices and the barriers people face when pursuing a career and a sense of independence. Shot with care, Fre-Hiwot sits comfortably in the Focus on Ability programme, which highlights the abilities, experiences and achievements of people with disability. A thoughtful piece that invites close attention and conversation.
