About this Short Film
The Mouth Painter (Chisomo Livason, Malawi, 2021) presents a thoughtful exploration of art, physical disability and the long shadow of polio. With adult themes of illness, independence and travel, the film considers personal achievement and the ways creativity can shape daily life. As part of the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival, it joins films that highlight the abilities, experiences and achievements of people with disability. This short encourages audiences to reflect on mobility, care and artistic expression without offering easy answers. It is a quietly powerful entry that complements the festival programme.
