About this Short Film
42 Days, directed by Natalia Portnoy (Netherlands, 2020), is a short film that moves through the anxieties and physical realities tied to congenital disability. Quiet and intimate, the film examines how concerns about genetics and conditions such as Huntington's reverberate for young adults living with disability. Portnoy's work invites a close look at fear, mental health and bodily difference without prescribing answers. Shown in our Focus on Ability programme, 42 Days joins other films that highlight resilience, everyday experience and the diverse ways people manage uncertainty. It is a thoughtful, humane piece that will prompt reflection and conversation.
