About this Short Film
Simone's Real-life Fairytale (Meflah, Dervieux & Charden, France, 2019) is a short film in the Focus on Ability International Short Film Festival programme. It explores imagination, individuality and the everyday realities of physical disability. The film presents a young adult perspective and includes a walker as part of its visual and thematic fabric. Rather than prescribing answers, it invites viewers to notice small moments and the creative ways people shape their lives. As festival organisers, we see it as a gentle, thoughtful piece that complements conversations about ability, agency and the many ways imagination can reframe ordinary experience.
