About this Short Film
For a Reason (2022) by Oreste Hafashimana, Rwanda This short film brings themes of albinism, childhood and perception into a quietly powerful space. Through moments of group interaction and careful acting, it invites audiences to consider how young people with medical disabilities are seen and heard. The film does not hand you answers, but offers a viewpoint that prompts reflection on inclusion and the everyday lives of children and teenagers negotiating difference. Screened as part of the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival, For a Reason complements the programme by highlighting questions of visibility and community, and by showcasing work that honours varied abilities and experiences.
