Measured and intimate, it explores isolation and the different viewpoints that shape how young people and families are seen and treated. The film raises questions about prejudice, stereotypes and stigma, and does not shy away from difficult themes including suicide. As part of the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival, Not Alone contributes a thoughtful, human portrayal of people's experiences and the ways perception can hurt or heal.
