About this Short Film
Nathaniel Harvey’s Were-Dingo: Origins (Australia, 2022) is presented in the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival. The short explores themes of autism and cognitive processing disability alongside ideas of experiment, individuality and young adulthood. Rather than offering a conventional plot summary, the film uses inventive form and a close focus on personal experience to invite viewers to consider how different minds make sense of the world. Quiet and thoughtful, it sits comfortably within our programme by highlighting ability in unexpected ways. Audiences can expect a film that values nuance and asks questions without giving easy answers.
