Running Snake is a hand-drawn, frame-by-frame 2D animation tracing desire, shame, and loneliness from a young woman’s perspective. In a world where female self-expression is silenced, it transforms secrecy into a delicate visual meditation on liberation, intimacy, and the courage to be seen.

“Alone, Yet Not” is a film about family, expectations, and failure. Through the story of a young woman at her breaking point, it explores these pressures and shows that, even in silence, we are never truly alone.
