🎬 No Family, No Friends — A Silent Short Film
Being an international student isn’t always the dream people think it is.
It’s waking up to silence. Cooking for one. Washing dishes that no one else used. Walking through crowded campuses and riding trains full of people — yet feeling completely alone.
It’s pretending everything’s fine in class when deep inside, you’re just trying to hold it together. It’s missing the little things… like your mom calling out, “Dinner’s ready!” a voice you’d give anything to hear again.
This short film has no dialogue, because sometimes… silence says it all.
To every student living far from home… this is your story.
