About this Short Film
Euphoria (Bornface Kachiza, Malawi, 2023) appears in the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival. This short film explores perception and viewpoint around physical disability, drawing attention to prejudice, stereotypes and stigma. It also touches on adult themes including assault and bullying, and the fragile role of kindness in group dynamics. Moments that involve a nurse figure and caregiving highlight how we see and respond to vulnerability. Presented without assumptions, Euphoria invites viewers to reflect on how attitudes shape experience and interaction. It is a thoughtful, sometimes challenging addition to our programme, asking questions rather than offering easy answers.
