About this Short Film
When Sticks Become Snakes, created by students at Kellyville High School, is a short Australian film from 2024 exploring anxiety and mental health in a school setting. Through striking images and intimate moments it reflects on the experience of being young and dealing with inner tension and fear. The film uses the motif of snakes to suggest the small and large ways worries move through daily life. Suitable for the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival, it contributes a young voice to conversations about individual resilience, access to support and the many faces of disability and difference in education. Quiet, thoughtful and empathetic.
