About this Short Film
Disability not Inability, by Angella Khumbanyiwa (Malawi, 2019), joins our Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival lineup. The short examines themes of childhood, individual goals, motivation and how we view ability. It offers a personal viewpoint on school life and everyday challenges, including mobility and the presence of a wheelchair, without prescribing a single message. Shot from a close, human perspective, the film encourages audiences to rethink assumptions about what people can achieve. It is a quietly persuasive piece that sits comfortably with the festival's aim to showcase the abilities, experiences and achievements of people with disability. A thoughtful, human portrait that invites conversation long after the credits roll.
