"For us, Te Manaia is very inspiring, not just for those with a disability but for everyone."
This is the first film competition the boys have entered.
Daniel said he and Sameed saw the competition as an opportunity to push themselves and expand the film culture within their school.
The Focus on Ability competition is in its 10th year and received 297 entries from 26 countries this year.
It is the brainchild of Nova Employment chief executive Martin Wren.
"FOA gives us fantastic insight into how society's attitudes are changing towards people with disability. I don't think you can fail to be impressed and inspired by taking 10 minutes to see a couple of FOA films," Wren said.
"[These films] change attitudes about people with disability and this is important because it is the first step towards an inclusive society."
The competition winners will be announced in September.
