Technology and social media are integral to our daily lives. Have you ever scrolled through your Facebook, Instagram, טוויטר, or other social media feeds and seen people posting about their experiences, הצלחות, or just plain attempts to show off? You may have experienced certain feelings after witnessing these things such as joy, sadness, or even anger. In the case of the short student film לא מושלם לחלוטין, directed by Millie Williams, Mallory Henderson and Tiana Hicks, the story is focused on how these experiences can affect lives.
The thing that makes this story special is that it tackles an issue that, in this author’s opinion, is not talked about enough. ב לא מושלם לחלוטין, a young girl gets a new phone and downloads Instagram. After spending a lot of time scrolling through her feed and looking at other people’s posts, she starts to develop feelings of depression and anger that affect her work in school, her ability to play sports, and her relationship with her family. All because she started comparing herself to other people she did not know. It isn’t until she decides to put down the phone that everything changes.
This film succeeds for a few reasons. The story explores the impact that social media can have on people, an issue that’s not talked about as much as it should be. Second, the film targets the right demographic, that is youth that are the same age as the ones presented in this short film that can be heavily influenced by technology and social media. לבסוף, this story can relate to anyone who has or is going through exactly what this film is focused on because everyone has been affected by social media one way or another.
