About this Short Film
The Poet Akimu Somanje 2 (Makande Model Primary School, Malawi, 2022) is a short film that reflects on sight, voice and the power of words. Through themes of blindness, perception and inclusion, the work invites viewers to consider how individuals and peers experience school life and express themselves. Poetic moments and everyday scenes suggest different viewpoints and the role of sensory difference in teenage life.
