About this Short Film
I Am a Very Special Being (Marcus Mandal, Denmark, 2019) places song and sensory detail at the heart of an exploration of perception and identity. The short film touches on themes of autism and cognitive processing disability while offering an adult viewpoint that asks viewers to listen and look differently. It does not provide easy answers. Instead it invites curiosity and quiet reflection, shaping an experience more than a conventional story. Shown in the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival, it sits within a programme that celebrates the abilities and achievements of people with disability. A restrained, thoughtful piece that rewards attentive watching.
