About this Short Film
"Pendulum" (2020) by Susil Ratnasekara is a short Australian film that examines perception and the experience of anxiety from a young adult viewpoint. Quiet and intimate, it invites audiences to consider how isolation and individual inner life shape what we see and feel. The film's approach fits well within the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival programme, which highlights diverse abilities and mental health experiences. Rather than offering neat answers, Pendulum sketches moments that linger, prompting reflection about personal boundaries, coping and the fragile ways people relate to themselves and others. A thoughtful piece for viewers interested in mental health and human perspective.
