About this Short Film
Emily in E Minor, directed by Emily Scerri-Rikkert, is a 2022 Australian short included in the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival. The film speaks to themes experienced by young adults with congenital and intellectual disability, including Down syndrome, and the ways music and movement shape social life. Viewers will encounter moments of group connection, guitar and dance, and the give and take of lessons that shape learning and joy. It is a gentle, observant work that celebrates ability, practice and community without speaking over its subjects. A concise, heartfelt piece, it fits naturally into our festival programme, which highlights achievement and everyday creativity.
