About this Short Film
Presented by the Academy of Mary Immaculate (Australia, 2019), This is an Ability is a short film that highlights the many ways ability and achievement are seen and understood. Rather than a single story, it draws attention to themes such as school life, sensory and physical disability, and conditions including deafness, dyslexia, congenital disability, ALS and tumour-related challenges. The film asks viewers to consider perception, viewpoint and motivation, and the role of group and community in shaping recognition and fame. Screening in the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival, it offers a thoughtful, accessible look at difference and determination for curious audiences.
