About this Short Film
Rotimi Popoola’s Dis-Ability (Nigeria, 2023) offers a thoughtful look at how medical and physical disability shape adult life and work. Rather than telling a single story, the film raises questions about employment, business and individual resilience, and acknowledges the ongoing effects of illness, including measles, on mobility and opportunity. Screened as part of Focus on Ability, it prompts audiences to consider practical barriers and personal strengths without reducing people to labels. Concise and quietly powerful, Dis-Ability fits the festival’s aim of showcasing diverse experiences and the many ways people adapt, contribute and thrive in professional and everyday settings.
