About this Short Film
"Statue of Success" (Mikias Mulugeta, Ethiopia, 2020) is a short film that considers perception, prejudice and inclusion. Through images and moments it raises questions about sensory and physical disability, isolation, group life, sport and work. The film challenges common stereotypes and shows how stigma and viewpoint shape everyday experience. Presented at the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival, it offers an Ethiopian perspective on accessibility and belonging. Its calm, observant style invites audiences to rethink assumptions and to notice small achievements often overlooked in daily life. A thoughtful addition to a programme celebrating ability and diversity.

In like the film
I was very moved by this film. I thought that the director told a wonderful story focusing on people who are often shunned. I represented an Academy Award nominated documentary called MURDERBALL a terrific film yet some audiences turned away because it was all about guys in wheelchairs. Congratulations Mikias for taking on this subject and making it shine.
This is the message every Ethiopian youth should follow and Im so happy to have seen this video because it has really moved me. It is something that anyone can apply to in their lives. We should always remember there is a brighter side to every situation and to always find a way to keep moving forward. Thank you for this film.
