If anyone wonder why "eggplant" is because Mandarin speaker will say "茄子” (eggplant in Chinese) when taking photo, as it sounds like "cheese". So the director use it in this shot film as creativity idea to show how the boy struggling with his syndrome.

This short film tells about being different can be lonely but it also make ones special. The story inspiration comes from language barrier of the director when he/she study abroad.

The camera guy is the little boy's inner being. When he talks about how the boy used to stand out when the boy is all grown its really just the boy lamenting within himself at how he gave in to people's unwillingness to try to understand that he is just different but really harmless and so by wanting to be accepted so much he confirmed.

As someone with autism, this is pretty much what it feels like. Every day I need to remember which faces and behaviors I need to use in any given moment. When I was younger I didn't have a lot of friends because I didn't know how to express myself properly, and a lot of what I said was taken the wrong way. I remember something someone said, "It's like life is a play and everyone has the script except you." Side note: My name is Lena, and it got me when the boy said "and this is Lena."

as a person with autism, this short film makes me extremely happy. everyone has their ways of expressing themselves, and especially so with autistic people. we're often seen as weird or even unnerving for our strange reactions, but they are just as real and genuine as anyone else's reactions. And whenever we mask (hide our autistic traits) we lose something that is special and primal to us. i think its important to accept others quirks, and be a lot less judgemental towards them before we know why they even react that way!

As someone with borderline personality disorder, this is sometimes how it feels. I often find myself laughing at inappropriate times and I’m disconnected with my own emotions. It’s a very interesting concept and I like this animation a lot. Makes me feel understood in a way Edit: people this is just how I view myself, I'm a diagnosed borderline who is schizotypal, and if I sounded odd or hateful towards anyone but myself I apologize. I have quiet borderline personality disorder, where I implode instead of explode. I usually inflict harm upon myself, not others

As someone who is an adult and autistic, this video absolutely hits the nail on the head. I've spent so long modifying my behavior to fit into society that it's become second nature to me - hardly an inconvenience. However, there are parts of myself that I will often hide from others out of fear of being weird or abnormal. This short film really spoke to me and I think it's encouraged me to try to embrace my "inner child" a little more and reconnect with my atypical parts - thank you for this gift, Omeleto.

This really resonates with me as a person who doesn't show emotions the same way as others. No matter how clearly I communicated my needs when I was younger, I was still ignored because I didn't show it with an onslaught of tears or a big smile. It proved to be very frustrating. So there were times I forced up some tearful mask just to get the help I needed. Thank you for this video! I hope it will help spread awareness about those who display emotions differently.

Laughing can actually be a nervous habit a lot of times I laugh when I’m nervous and then my dad will get mad. It doesn’t mean your mentally ill it’s actually normal.

This film has touched me in so many ways. Firstly smiling when ur happy. When I'm most sad and in discomfort I tend to laugh and when I'm happy and comfortable, I'm usually calm and kinda cold. Another part is trying to change yourself, trying to be normal, "improve as a person", that need to always fit. And in so many other ways.

I’ve seen others comment about how they relate this with their autism, it’s the same for me. At the part where he’s like « you used to stand out », it makes me think, I used to be myself all the time as a kid, but I was forced to be like everyone else because of the fact I could relatively « function » in society, so to me and everyone around me, I was just irregular. Now I just blend in and I can’t get out of the loop of masking, kind of the cycle that durian went through by him trying to smile, except for him, it didn’t loop

I’m autistic and this hit different. Durian learning how to expression is like us learning to mask, it feels like. It took a long time for me to unlearn the masking. And now, maybe people won’t like me as much. Maybe I stick out again, just like when I was a lonely kid. But now I’m me again.

I love how he goes missing immediately after he gets it right and asks the girl out completely enthusiastically. He's mastered the act now, the real Durian would have asked her out sounding so forlorn and dreadful, the real Durian is as good as dead once he has the acting down. He's gone. Missing.

When I first watched this I related to it- but coming back now- after all of this time, with the perspective of the fact that I'm almost definitely on the spectrum- everything makes so much more sense. I feel like most people get help without asking for it, but to get enough help I have to research and read and ask and push because people cant tell that I'm hurting. Because hiding myself is so- instinctive now. I cant meet new people without hiding pieces of me. Even onine I feel like I cant be myself. and I don't know how to stop.

Like others here, this short film really captures how masking or emotions feel for neurodivergent people or people who just don’t express the same way as others. The ending still really struck a cord for me. When Durian overtime just fakes/masks his feelings to be like an act, although he is more accepted he comes to see how he’s lost his individuality. He’s lost touch with himself because he’s trying to be like everyone else. Then as he goes through the streets, coming to see that everyone else are hardly able to express themselves either (The cryptic faces in the theater or the same blank man on the train.) It makes him wonder why he wanted to change a core part of himself. In the room with all the photos, each fading away as he chases his childhood self. All of these masks and costumes fading away, peeling back moments of his life. Then on the sea, young Durian instead takes a photo of his older self making the expression as the first photo. The color returning to a calm blue, it’s a moment of self-acceptance. In this moment, he didn’t want to be anyone else or have any other face to put on; he wanted to just be Durian. Would love to see more discussion on the themes and symbols in this short film, I’d love to see y’all’s thoughts.

When I was younger I tried to keep my emotions secret and now as an adult I have to make effort to show how I’m feeling or else people will think I’m upset or not having a good time. My outward emotions and inward emotions are at such a dissonance that the only one who really knows what I’m feeling is me. This short film really touched me. It’s not often I feel seen in media but this really touched me. Also the animation is just stunning. The heavy contrast is beautiful.

damn. I connect. never receiving the care you need or getting your point across without being misunderstood; trying to mask it by emphasizing yourself to almost that of a character- somewhat losing yourself and your intentions due to trying to blend in. Searching for who you used to be, then after awhile it turns out you’re the same as always, just completely different ‼️ kudos to the creators and associated
