About this Short Film
Unbreakable, created by students at Chisholm Catholic College, is a 2021 Australian short film that explores themes around brittle bones, medical and physical disability, and the impact of bullying and stigma. Rather than offering answers, it invites viewers to consider how memories, prejudice and stereotypes shape school life and a young person’s sense of self. The film sits naturally within the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival, contributing a thoughtful, compassionate perspective on the challenges and strengths of individuals living with disability. Unbreakable encourages conversation and greater understanding, asking audiences to look beyond labels and recognise shared humanity.
