About this Short Film
Friends with Benefits, from the Ratchasuda Institute, Mahidol University (Thailand, 2024), approaches themes of blindness, disease, perception and young adulthood with care and clarity. Rather than spelling out a story, the film invites viewers to consider how sensory disability shapes viewpoint, intimacy and personal identity. Moments of humour and discomfort sit alongside quieter reflections on desire and connection. Shown as part of the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival, this short contributes to our programme by highlighting the varied experiences and abilities of people with disability. It is a subtle, human portrait that asks the audience to pay attention in new ways.
