Trust Me

An animated short documentary that follows a young woman's path after a bipolar diagnosis, tracing her move from doubt to self-acceptance as she dares to challenge everyday stigma. In "Trust Me," this genre-bending portrait blends humor and compassion to tell a moving, deeply personal story of coming to terms with her mental health. When she begins to display atypical and extreme behaviours, her loved ones manipulate her into hospitalisation against her will. The diagnosis of bipolar disorder launches a courageous journey of self-acceptance, confronting both internalised and societal stigma, and learning to trust herself and others once again.
