Passion or Destruction?

Sadie has a passion for art and likes to vlog the process of her artwork. Just as she begins to gain her confidence to film outside of her bedroom, someone she once called a friend decides to bring her down a level at school.

Director Statement

The purpose of Sunny Blues is to highlight the profound impact bullying can have on individuals, showing how it erodes a person’s confidence and passion, turning activities they once enjoyed into sources of pain and disinterest. Bullying remains a growing issue in Australia, affecting one in four young people each year. I hope our encourages you to reflect on your own life and embrace kindness towards those around you. Consider the experiences of those who have endured similar situations and put a stop to bullying.
