Roog is a film that shows a man in the final stages of depression. A young man is hounded, traumatised
and tormented by the rebukes of people in his life who have ostracised him because of his mental
illness. He has been called a 'psycho', failure, to be eventually isolated by the people in his life. This pushes him to the
point of suicide.
It is clear that the film seeks to promote affirmative awareness on mental health, so it
doesn’t end at the man’s death. It also adds information on the ways to find help and community.
