About this Short Film
Now and Then (Mt Ommaney Special School, Australia, 2019) is a short film that explores perception and viewpoint within a school setting. Rather than following a defined plot, it presents moments that highlight group life, practical skills and the everyday ways teenagers experience change. The film touches on themes of intellectual and physical disability, and on memory and yesteryear, inviting viewers to reflect on different perspectives. Honest and unpretentious, it sits comfortably in the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival, which showcases the abilities, experiences and achievements of people with disability. A quietly powerful piece that rewards close looking.
