About this submission

I chose to tell this story because, as I was about to turn 18, I found myself reflecting deeply on what adulthood means. I questioned why adults often feel ashamed of embracing imagination or indulging in make-believe the very things that brought us the purest joy as children. Why do we feel we must let go of "childish things" as we grow older? Through this film, I wanted to explore how we can balance getting older while still holding on to the parts of our younger selves that make life feel magical and full of possibility.
