About this Short Film
A Safe Place to Rest (2019) by Ray Jacobs, Graham Busby and Arty Party is a short from the United Kingdom that offers a quietly powerful look at movement, identity and belonging. Through dance and careful observation, the film highlights the abilities and presence of a young adult with Down syndrome and cognitive processing differences. It does not tell a single story but invites viewers to notice gesture, rhythm and individual expression. Presented as part of the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival, A Safe Place to Rest complements our programme by celebrating diverse modes of communication and the creative work of people with intellectual disability.

Beautiful touching and sensitive film. Felt there in the wood too comforted and save. Lovely acting nicely understated.
