About this Short Film
Phone Home, directed by James Kurtze (Australia, 2020), is included in the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival. The film is presented alongside works that highlight the abilities, experiences and achievements of people with disability. Its listed themes include congenital disability, intellectual disability, Down syndrome, young adulthood, group dynamics and DJ culture. Rather than outlining a plot, we invite viewers to approach Phone Home as a piece that raises questions about youth, community and representation. Shown with care in our programme, it offers a moment to listen, notice and reflect on how stories about disability are told and who gets to tell them.
