Director's Statement
The objective of this movie was to explore the significance of behavioral and mental health among teenagers in the modern world. People-pleasers frequently lack self-awareness; often, they aren't even conscious of their own desires or requirements. I intend to depict their lives in such a way that viewers can understand their inner reality — their emotional frame of reference — as clearly as if these were genuine people they knew in real life.
