About this Short Film
Glue Ear (Whakatupuranga Rua Mano, New Zealand, 2018) is a short film included in the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival. Through the lenses of child and teenage perspectives, it explores hearing difference, medical disability and how perception shifts in school and group settings. The film invites viewers to consider viewpoint and social dynamics without presuming a single story about disability. It is an attentive, quiet piece that sits well within our programme because it highlights the everyday experiences and abilities of young people living with hearing challenges. A thoughtful, accessible work that prompts discussion and empathy.
