Gratitude Box (Philmon Kuipa, Malawi, 2023) is a short film that explores kindness, prejudice and stigma surrounding physical disability. With a focus on adult perspectives and group interactions, it raises questions about stereotypes and how communities respond to difference. The film includes situations involving a wheelchair and invites audiences to reflect on everyday gestures that can either harm or heal. Presented in the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival, Gratitude Box complements our programme by offering a grounded, human portrayal of disability-related issues from Malawi. It is a thoughtful addition for viewers interested in inclusion, respect and social change.
