About this Short Film
Disability is not Inability, by Ben Ryman (Malawi, 2022), is a short film that explores themes of blindness, sensory disability and the power of music among young adults.

Its focus on sound and communal moments invites audiences to experience how music can shape identity and belonging. We are pleased to include this film in our programme for its uplifting tone and its celebration of ability, talent and everyday resilience. A warm, thoughtful piece that asks viewers to listen with fresh ears.
