Experiencing Interruptions?

Dormant

The aim of this animation was to visualise the emotional pain of depression through expressionistic animation, and to depict how loneliness can harm the human soul. The inner suffering of the main character is manifested through the natural force of a Volcano, to then show that sharing pain with others can relieve it and bring you back to life.
