This graduation work is an animated film based on a short story by Mihovil Rismondo, a colleague from the Academy of Dramatic Art. The theme is bullying, with an accent on the socio-psychological aspect. Set in school days, it is a story about boys who physically demonstrate their misunderstanding of someone who is different and take this behaviour to its limit. With the idea to create an original visuality, different techniques of material preparations have been used, as well as different animation techniques. In terms of genre, the film combines drama and horror, ending in a catharsis.

Fear is part of our identity, it is our everyday life and we experience it in different ways. We grow up with it, and over time we overcome or suppress it. However, it is always present, transforms itself into something else, follows our steps, and enters our dreams. It is said that fear has big eyes, they grow where we meet the unknown and then, to some aspects of reality, such as time, we give unrealistic proportions. Only when the fear is overcome, the eyes shrink and the picture becomes clearer.
