high school

An intimate animated portrait of one individual's journey through anxiety and isolation, unfolding into a quiet, hard-earned sense of self-acceptance.

“Mirror”, a short drama film, introduces Betty, a high schooler struggling with academic pressure and OCD. Betty finds herself struggling to accept that she got an A- instead of an A+ on her test, which leads her into a mental breakdown, forcing her to face her biggest fears. Betty meets the idealized version of herself and notices how she is taking over her life. She needs to decide whether to accept herself as an imperfect human being or lose herself trying to be that ‘perfect’ version.

In his last days of high school, Joe wants to complete his bucket list by talking to his crush and must achieve it before the school year ends.

Caught in the repetition of their classroom life, high school students sit through days that never feel complete.
