Depression, Suicide (Asian American Media Literacy Digital Story)

*This short film is for nonprofit educational purposes.*

Description (updated): Besides the obvious of dealing with many problems and emotions in every day life, this story is also about denial and constantly trying to find a reason for the depression. "Why are you depressed?" I am always looking for the answer to that question... but perhaps it isn't as simple as I'd like it to be.

*This is my first film.*
