Synopsis

From ‘unwelcome attention’ to ‘nasty pranks’, sexual harassment and assault in school is a problem that can fly under the radar unless it is called out for what it is. While listening to music on her headphones on the bus, Aleena is harassed by some boys who think it’s all a big joke. Traumatised, she tries to speak to a teacher about it but gets cut off. She grows aware of a normalisation of unacceptable behaviour, but then discovers a magical safe space and experiences a connection with another classmate. This empowering moment triggers a small act of rebellion in Aleena, which transforms the classroom. This is a powerful short film that promotes peer support and a culture of zero tolerance towards abuse.
