⭐️ Creator Highlights: /IMAGINE short film

The French short film created by Anna Apter provides thoughtful critique of social media and the distortion of reality when life is viewed only through the lens of sharing online. By focusing on 13-year-olds, the age at which one can legally start an Instagram account, the film explores the meaning of celebration and connection in a social media-saturated world. Apter offers a nuanced perspective, prompting viewers to reflect on how social media impacts our relationships and interactions. The film's willingness to challenge assumptions makes it impactful and thought-provoking. Bravo, Anna!
