We truly believe that the Focus on Ability Short Film Festival is a game-changer.
This incredible event celebrates the abilities and achievements of people with
disability and has the power to shift perspectives, foster inclusivity, and ignite
positive change.
This year, we’re challenging you to create a powerful, under-5-minute film that
showcases the talent, strength, and accomplishments of people with disability.
Why enter? Beyond the incredible prizes—over $100,000 in rewards—you will
gain recognition for championing a more inclusive world. You can join a movement
that’s making a lasting impact!
Entries close July 1, so start planning today to be part of the 2025 program.
Many of the films are even broadcast on national TV and showcased at free
screenings across the country—and you're invited to be a part of that!
Entry is completely free, and creating a film has never been easier. Past
entries have been nothing short of inspirational. Check out the incredible films
from previous years.
In September and October, we’ll be touring the festival nationwide, offering
free events where you can see your film on the big screen.
