They have this to say about the project: “‘Rude Awakening’ is the first chapter of the movie; Bella, an introverted 22-year-old girl decides to come to a house party. This is her only chance to validate herself that she’s part of the peers. After a series of events that challenged her self-esteem, she had to find a way to overcome her discomforts to survive the night. She got nervous because the party was packed with people. Her friend left her to be with other friends. She’s left alone among other people. She made several attempts to enjoy the party and mingle with other people but failed. She got overwhelmed and decided to go to the bathroom to get to be with her for a while to clear her head“.
