The short film is a sincere attempt to explore the flip-side of an addiction, primarily that of a video game, PubG, that had the entire country in its grip only a few months ago. The narrative also endeavours to interact with ideas of friendship, loyalty, loss and grief. <br><br> The protagonist sits in his room by himself playing the game on his phone. Amidst the deeply involving match, he keeps getting phone calls from the same person. He ignores all of them only to miss out on an urgent need of a friend. What would it be and how far reaching would be its consequences? The protagonist would soon learn to his folly.

PUBG | Short Film Nominee

A young, overworked corporate employee has to deal with the never-ending pressure of multiple project submissions, deadlines and a nagging boss on a day-to-day basis. To add to the extensive work and repeated calls from his superior, on this particular day, his food delivery is delayed by more than twenty minutes. <br><br>
When the food finally arrives, the man lashes out at the meek delivery person who attempts to pacify the situation by apologizing. Still, the man brutally berates him, calls his own job far more important than the simple task of delivering food, and slams the door shut. This short film presents the perspective of lower wage workers and the ordeal they have to go through dealing with self-righteous, privileged members of society. It communicates the message of being humble and respectful to one and all.
