Short Film About Anxiety (A)

    Anxiety is the world’s most common mental health condition, but something few candidly speak about. Personal and intimate, the contributors talk via smartphones about their relationships with anxiety in their place of comfort, mixed with imagery and sequences inspired by the filmmakers’ own experiences.

    A delicate lace veil partially obscures the face of the subject, who appears to be standing in a dimly lit, natural setting.
