Experiencing Interruptions?

But, why?

In this world, each of us live in a family, society, community or a country. The generation of a myth or any type of cultural superstition or any kind of un-written rule of our society, that is presented in such a wrong way within the society, that itself later becomes a stereotype and creates a never ending loop of injustice among the people; even when there is question about how that un-written rule first appeared and for what reason. And all of this is shown in a 'metaphorical way' in this shortfilm.
