The Hunted

About this Short Film

The Hunted (2021) by Dan Farmer and Adam Bigum is a bold Australian short film that explores the intersecting pressures of bullying, crime and sensory disability. Through a young adult lens the film examines how group dynamics and communication shape risk, safety and trust. It includes deaf perspectives and moments that suggest gun-related threat, asking viewers to consider how ability and vulnerability are perceived. Screened as part of the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival, The Hunted contributes to our programme by highlighting lived experience and prompting conversations about inclusion, support and justice. It will resonate with audiences interested in disability and youth issues.
