Disguise

We often assume different roles and forget who we truly are. Remembering your own identity helps to overcome social pressure and inner fears.

I am a Tree

This animation is about the environment and conservation of trees…
Inside the class kids are playing a boy an idea came to his mind and goes to the blackboard and began to draw a tree. Another boy is angry with this move and goes to the blackboard and erases his friend’s painting. The boy again draws the tree This time also the bully boy erases the painting. Another boy is angry with this move goes to the blackboard and draws a tree and the bully boy erases his painting too.
Meanwhile, other kids go to the blackboard and start painting the tree. The bully boy begins to cough. When he is sad, he sees a chalk on the ground, he also draw a tree and eventually all the children are happy.


The Sugarcane Man

The story plays on how the innocence (children) are being used for the purpose to fight in a
purposeless war that is based on the true facts of a Warlord named Joseph Kony in Northern
Uganda. Through using kids vulnerability and tempting them in whatever means necessary they
are lured to be tools for war. Africa’s children are being sacrificed to win meaningless wars.
Joseph Rao Kony commands The Lord’s Resistance Army that was formed in 1986 in Uganda.
He controlled thousands of child shoulders and forced them to kill their own parents/ family
members. The child who has killed will think how he will go back to the community after what he
has done, since they participated in killing- in result all they have left is to follow Kony. He
brainwashes the children by telling them to smear their bodies with oil and ash to make
themselves bulletproof. Some say he is a powerful witch doctor that can control nature and is a
great master when disappearing from the law- He normally leaves his men to cover his escape
while he lives to fight another day..
