The short film uses visuals of objects of childhood - from dolls to a colouring book, to conjure an image of innocence. However, the same image is marked by bleeding colours and an eerie soundtrack that reminds the viewer that this reality is much darker than being simply confined to toys.
As much of the drama comes to pivot on the little girl's doll, watching over her like a silent guardian, the story wants to be a comment on child sexual abuse and draw its audience's attention to a cruel, oppressive reality of the adult world that vulnerable children are subjected to.
