About this Short Film
Just The Same (2018) by St Michael's College is a short Australian film that considers blindness, sensory disability and how young people experience independence and inclusion. Part of the Focus on Ability program, it reflects on perception and viewpoint without assuming a single story. Touching on themes of school, adolescence and being seen as an individual, the film invites audiences to rethink common ideas about ability and normality. It offers a thoughtful, accessible look at the small moments that shape belonging and self-reliance. A concise, human-centred piece that sits comfortably within the festival’s celebration of diverse strengths and experiences.
