My short film is about an 18-year-old girl who has anxiety and uses her social media on her phone as a coping mechanism for her anxiety (her phone is her identity/she hides behind her phone screen). Every morning, the girl wakes up and immediately picks up her phone to scroll through her social media; she usually spends close to an hour doing this every morning instead of getting out of bed. The girl can’t seem to go anywhere without her phone. Whenever the girl gets phone calls, she suffers from an anxiety attack. She gets a phone call from an unknown number and ends up throwing her phone to the wall due to her panic attacks, which causes her phone to break; this creates a sense of distress and chaos for the girl. She wraps her phone up in bandages, keeps it in her arms, and goes into town. She gets a coffee to calm down, but she thinks everyone is staring at her, causing her to feel paranoid. As her phone isn’t working anymore, she doesn’t feel normal or safe. At the end of the short film, the girl goes to a phone shop to buy a new phone, but her current phone has been the only thing that has made her happy and cope with her anxiety, so she doesn’t want to replace it as she is scared that a new one wouldn’t provide the same security and happiness as the current one. The amount of choices, stress and upset overwhelms her and causes her to run out of the shop, crying, and rocks her phone in her arms.
