A teen reminisces about her past emotional experiences through a bag full of fruit, revealing both her unstable and vulnerable sides.

The Lost Voices of Nature

Because of human activity, the peace and harmony of nature are being threatened. Air pollution, forest clearing, loss of wetland, and other man- induced environmental changes lead up to this. exploitation of the sea creature are leading to the depletion of life in the earth’s oceans. Animals fleeing their homes due to the destruction of their habitats. Our planet faces a global extinction crisis never before met in the history of humanity. We hear less and less every day. Soon, their voices will fade away into oblivion. This issue concerns us deeply. If the world is silenced, then a very bleak future awaits us our children.

She Can't Control Herself

Hypersexualization of women and girls is a common phenomenon in media, at home, and in school. Because it is something unavoidable, young girls and boys alike grow up with false beliefs and expectations on how women and girls should be treated, how they should act, and how they should dress. Our film aims to raise awareness and start a conversation around this issue by sharing the first hand experiences of four young women.
