ABOUT
The brief was simple: create a video for International Book Day.
To me, it had to be more than just showing someone reading.
There’s a deeper social issue that needs to be addressed — the growing screen time, smartphone addiction, and how this habit has increasingly distanced people from books.
In some way, I wanted to provoke that reflection — to spark a moment of self-awareness about how mobile phones have replaced books in our daily lives.
The video wasn’t published
