Favor

About this Short Film

Favor, by Mesfin Seboka (Ethiopia, 2023), is a short film that explores moments of accident, resilience and achievement through the lens of sensory disability. The work touches on experiences across age groups, from children and teenagers to young adults and adults, and considers how groups and individuals navigate sudden change. Clear, understated storytelling invites viewers to reflect on ability, adaptation and connection without prescribing a single reading. Presented as part of the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival, Favor contributes to our programme by highlighting diverse perspectives on disability and the everyday strategies people use to move forward.
