Synopsis
A young man living in a restricted world decides to take the biggest risk of his life.
Artist StatementMost people live within a security range they are familiar with, and they are not willing to take the risk of leaving the area. This is like an invisible but actual restraint that limits people's lives. This limitation may come from dependence on bad habits, satisfaction with the status quo, stress of life, and so on. But once they get a chance to leave, they may feel that the results are not as bad as they think. This is also my personal confusion and thinking about the self-state in different stages. It is not only a personal experience but also a problem faced by many people. So after I have experienced, felt and thought, I recorded and expressed my thoughts through animation.
