Mother, Oh Mother...

I am sorry for the privilege of my sorrows.

3 min · Animation, Drama

An experimental short film exploring the endurance of the feminine spirit against oppressive structures. As a faceless maternal figurine stands paralyzed in a crumbling room, a son narrates the voice that was stolen from her and apologizes for the world that silenced her.
