About this Short Film
My Brother Sam (2020) by Sebastian Youssef is a short film from Australia presented in the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival. The film explores themes such as autism, cognitive processing disability and intellectual disability, alongside sibling relationships and the experiences of teenagers. Rather than prescribing a single view, it offers a thoughtful, humane look at the abilities, challenges and everyday moments that shape young lives. Gentle and attentive in tone, it complements our programme of films that celebrate the talents and voices of people with disability. Recommended for viewers interested in family dynamics and nuanced portrayals of neurodiversity.
