Living with mental health is a real pain in the ass. I sometimes feel like a character straight out of fairytales with a slightly bleaker outcome. If you were to look at me with a magnifying glass you might see hundreds of little princesses dancing but then again you might not. Coming up against a stranger's opinion on your so-called reality can be “kind of” frustrating.
"Masquerades" is a trio of short films addressing the stigmas surrounding mental health. Across three generations, the characters in “Masquerade” bounce between their own reality and the world around them until it is no longer possible for them to pretend.
