The Power of Kindness (Sunbury Downs College, Australia, 2022) is a short film that explores themes of kindness, inclusion and school life. It highlights experiences involving intellectual and physical disability, including wheelchair use, and reflects on how young people relate to one another in an educational setting. Presented as part of the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival, the film sits within a programme celebrating the abilities and achievements of people with disability. Clear-eyed and compassionate, it will appeal to educators, families and festival audiences interested in everyday acts of care and the ways schools can be welcoming places for all students.
