An individual film made by a group of high school students in 2018.
Short summary: High school student Daniel Shin lives with constant anxiety and severe depression. He constantly battles his anxiety, finding it harder and harder to keep calm as he loses his older sister to the grips of death. As he starts to crumble into depression, one of his close friends falls victim to suicide.
We were not able to finish filming rest of the scenes, so we decided to make a short "trailer" version of what we have filmed so far.
