Overwhelmed: A Cyberbullying Short Film

The purpose of this short film, more than anything, is to show how quickly a situation can escalate and also how overwhelming social media hate can be. It can feel like there is no escape because the messages just keep on rolling in and we are already so invested into the social media environment that it is difficult for us to switch off. We are always subject to this abuse.

"Educational films serve as key tools to inspire change and promote intercultural dialogue in schools. They offer a unique opportunity for students to develop critical thinking skills, increase awareness about social and cultural issues, and encourage a more open and inclusive approach to learning. Through their powerful themes and impactful narratives, these educational films are rich resources that support innovative teaching and contribute to building a more informed, conscious, and democratic society."
