Beyond Sight

About this Short Film

Beyond Sight, a 2025 short by Malawian filmmaker Mandala Banda, offers a thoughtful look at assumptions around blindness and how perception shifts within a group of teenagers. As part of our programme, it invites discussion among viewers. Rather than a single narrative, the film raises questions about viewpoint, sensory disability and the ways young people respond to difference. Quiet and observant, it fits well in the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival, which showcases films about the abilities, experiences and achievements of people with disability. Audiences can expect a film that prompts reflection and conversation about seeing, listening and the limits of what we think we know.
