About this Short Film
"Am I Special or "Special?"" by Airds High School (Australia, 2018) is a short film made by students that explores themes of autism and cognitive processing disability within a school context. It raises questions about identity, difference and how labels affect young people. The film presents a thoughtful, accessible viewpoint that prompts viewers to reflect rather than offering neat solutions. Quiet and direct, it adds a youthful voice to conversations about inclusion and ability. Included in the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival, the work highlights the experiences and perspectives of teenagers and supports our programme’s aim to showcase diverse abilities and strengths.
