Caldera is an animated short film about a young girl struggling with mental illness. The story follows her as she goes off her medication and leaves a bleak metropolis to immerse herself in a vibrant oceanic cove.
"She is already transforming. Her skin is glowing, falling apart, and pieces of her shirt are floating weightlessly in the air. She looks down at herself splitting apart at the seams.
Light pours out of her and collects inbetween her extended hands."
