About this Short Film
Michael Bird's Finding a Voice (Australia, 2022) is a short film that listens to the power of song amid challenges of isolation, mental health and medical disability. Rather than offering a single story, it explores how group singing and choir practice can shape connection, identity and resilience. The camera attends to quiet moments and communal energy, letting sound and presence speak. Presented in the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival, this film sits alongside works that highlight the abilities and achievements of people with disability. It will appeal to audiences interested in music, community and the everyday negotiations of voice and belonging.
