What happens if your biggest fear was standing or walking? Not because you have a physical disability, but simply because your mind has convinced you that that indeed is the worst possible fate. Such is the life of someone struggling with stasiphobia.
The short film gives us a moving glimpse into an ordinary day of a young boy who suffers from the phobia. As he struggles to answer the door, having already given up on his ringing phone, the viewer is introduced to an unfathomable reality, one where your own mind has turned against itself. While Akash Pandey's thought to talk about a reality known by very few in an intelligently titled film is noteworthy, it's further supplemented by Aditya Pandey's convincing performance. The short film also deserves praise for the use of minimalistic frames and resources in a visual product where its cinematography could have been a disadvantage.
