The rules and norms of society and social groups can be a lot of pressure. How do we fit in? Do we dare stand out? The stakes are high for the characters in these short films as they try to navigate their paths. Friction comes from fellow passengers on the train or bus, teammates on the court, or friends in the backyard or paddock.
