About this Short Film
The Butterfly Whisperer (2025) by Autism Moms of Kona, Hawaii, thoughtfully explores themes of autism, childhood and cognitive processing disability. It pays attention to individual interests and the transition from child to teenager, offering a gentle, respectful portrait rather than a single narrative. Viewers can expect an observant, sensory-driven short that values everyday moments and personal ways of being. The film sits comfortably within the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival programme, which celebrates the abilities, experiences and achievements of people with disability. For audiences seeking work that listens more than it explains, this short promises a quiet, revealing encounter.
