About this Short Film
QuackStar's Connection (Allison Pitt & Venessa Crane, Australia, 2022) explores performance, perception and the many ways people present themselves. The film brings together themes of dance, group work, adult performing and lived experience of congenital, intellectual and physical disability, including wheelchair use. Rather than offering a neat narrative, it invites viewers to shift their viewpoint and notice moments that challenge assumptions about ability and creativity. Shot and edited with attention to movement and presence, this short is both thoughtful and immediate. It is a welcome addition to the Focus on Ability festival lineup, highlighting diverse ways of being and performing on screen.
