The short film "Jade" tells the emotionally complex story of a girl named Jade dealing with traumatic events in her life, including a death in her family, issues with her identity and sexuality. Through phenomenal acting performances by Anita Brahimi as Jade, and Max Potter and Mazzy Westwood as her friends Olly and Carol, the film creates deeply moving and emotional scenes. The music and cinematography further emphasize the characters' emotions and allow the audience to gain insight into Jade's thoughts and journey. Overall, the film is a heartbreaking work that addresses important issues and is guaranteed to deeply impact viewers.
