About this Short Film
The Walk by Iris van Dongen (Netherlands, 2019) is a short film that quietly explores anxiety, isolation and mental health in young adults. Rather than offering answers, it presents a personal, attentive portrayal of individual experience, inviting viewers to reflect and empathise. Its measured tone and sensitive focus make it a thoughtful fit for the Focus on Ability programme, which highlights the abilities and everyday realities of people with disability. This film prompts gentle but persistent questions about connection, vulnerability and what it means to navigate the world while feeling alone. Short in length but resonant in impact, The Walk rewards careful viewing.
