About this Short Film
Taco Tuesday (John Lawson, United States, 2022) is a short film screening at the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival. Quiet and observant, it explores themes of achievement, congenital disability and Down Syndrome alongside threads of crime, heroism and the challenges of young adulthood. Lawson’s work offers a respectful, unflashy view of people negotiating hopes, setbacks and moments of courage. The film sits comfortably within the festival’s aim to showcase the abilities and achievements of people with disability, inviting audiences to reflect rather than judge. Suitable for programme discussions, Taco Tuesday sparks conversation about representation, resilience and the variety of human experience.
