Seventh Year

About this Short Film

Seventh Year, from Caroline Chisholm School - Senior Campus (Australia, 2024), explores the tensions and small triumphs around starting high school and moving between stages of life. Screening in the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival, the film draws attention to anxiety, assessments, bullying and the everyday impact of sensory, cognitive and physical disabilities. Family, friendships and teachers appear as part of a broader picture about inclusion, prejudice and stigma. Told through the viewpoint of young people navigating transition, the piece invites audiences to listen and notice rather than assume. A thoughtful, compassionate short that fits the festival's aim to highlight abilities, experiences and achievement.
