This short film was created as part of a university brief to raise awareness about water pollution. Rather than approaching the subject through traditional documentary or informative means, I chose to explore it through a fictional narrative that focuses on empathy and symbolism.
By personifying the suffering of marine animals through the character of the merboy, the film highlights the devastating impact of plastic waste in a way that is intimate and emotionally affecting.
This film is a reminder that the damage we cause to nature is not invisible. It is happening, it is real, and it is deeply tragic.
