About this Short Film
I Can (2019) from Mount St Benedict College is a short Australian film that looks at the everyday abilities and learning experiences of young people with Down syndrome and other cognitive processing or intellectual disabilities. Set around school activities, the piece highlights skill development, participation and the routines that shape teenage life. It sits comfortably within the Focus on Ability festival by celebrating capability, inclusion and the small but meaningful achievements that matter to individuals and their communities. Warm and respectful in tone, I Can invites audiences to notice strengths, rethink assumptions and appreciate the range of ways young people show competence and confidence.
