The Focus on Ability Short Film Festival reached an exciting new audience in 2025 with our national broadcast on SBS, celebrating an extraordinary collection of films from around the world.

Every year, the Focus on Ability Short Film Festival shines a light on powerful stories that challenge perceptions and celebrate the abilities of people with disability. 2025 was no exception. From heartfelt documentaries to creative short films, this year’s winners captured audiences, sparked conversations, and inspired change.

Each year, the festival grows in reach, impact, and community connection—and 2026 is shaping up to be our most powerful yet. With filmmakers, schools, and communities already preparing their entries, we’re once again inviting the world to share stories that challenge perceptions and celebrate ability.
