Unseen

A social-impact commercial directed by Anja Giele

A ten-year-old boy describes his everyday life. Behind his words, the images reveal a different reality: he is lonely, carries too much responsibility and is being pushed into adulthood before his time.

The score initially invites us into a cheerful story seen through a child’s eyes. That impression breaks when he returns home and checks on his pet. Towards the end, the music recedes and finally disappears, leaving space for his loneliness and the pressure he carries.
