Whispers of Innocence

In the short film "Whispers of Innocence," three spirited sisters find solace in an abandoned, ruined house, creating a world of imagination with dolls made from socks. Their idyllic playtime is abruptly disrupted when three mysterious men in suits arrive, shattering their joyful reverie. The men, their identities concealed, proceed to invade their space, transforming the girls' innocent attire into oversized bridal gowns. With their beloved sock dolls destroyed under the weight of the men's polished shoes, the girls are forcibly led away from their sanctuary, leaving behind an empty void and echoing cries of anguish. The film explores the horrifying truth behind child marriages.
