Disability-Not Inability

About this Short Film

Benson Kamanga’s Disability-Not Inability (Malawi, 2023) is a short film that highlights the abilities and achievements of people with physical disability. As part of the Focus on Ability festival, it looks at themes of employment, family, inclusion and the everyday challenges and motivations adults face. The film also touches on prejudice, stigma and common stereotypes, offering a clear-eyed view of how work and community can shape opportunity. We are pleased to present this film for audiences interested in honest, human stories about resilience and change. It sits comfortably within the festival’s aim to celebrate capacity over limitation.
