Is Anybody Out There?

Is Anybody Out There? is a short film produced by Barbara Sinatra Children’s Center Foundation in collaboration with Wonder Media that explores the importance of a trusted adult and the courage it takes for a teenager to tell their story.

[@eastonarts]

Its really great how they put her in a space suit. Being harassed like that makes you feel like you cant breathe, cant move very well, and you feel lonely. Its EXACTLY like it shows, in space, alone and scared, heavy.

It's good that this shows that even the people who seem safe and everyone looks up to can be monsters. The coach seemed cool and charismatic, and when she told him to stop, he started gaslighting and trying to make her think it was an overreaction. Sadly, this happens way too often.

Depending om how moderate tell them off first and if they keep pushing with it then give them some kind of damage long lasting or not, break a nose by all means - it's self defense.

Now, keep in mind he has no idea what hes doing, he hasnt done that type of education yet. He thankfully hasnt done it in a while now. In case ur wondering why i havnt told anyone, i have. My mom has gotten angry at him TWICE for it, yet for some time after both he continued, and he is practically glued to me in a certain lesson we do, and it makes me uncomfortable, the way he acts. Luckily I dont have to worry about that anymore, as im going to a different class next year.

This kid named Giovanni (exposing his first name because he deserves it) He talked about inappropriate things with me during lunch (he was a year older than us fourth graders , this was about 3 years ago) so I didn’t know back then , but now I do BECAUSE OF HIM. Fast forward a year later , I got sent to ISS because I had a tic and I accidentally dropped the f-bomb i still got blamed and got 10 days off IN SCHOOL SUSPENSION. He touched my legs inappropriately and he also said that he wants to f me So then I want to tell the teacher of the ISS room BUT . If I did. I had the fear he would do something since this kid would also be in ISS every 2 weeks. Fast forward a year , I had a friend SHE WAS THE DAMN GIRLFRIEND OF HIM.

You've got to love the level of symbolism and perception going on in this, they portray her inability to tell anyone about her situation: her isolation to that of outer space and an astronaut. The rope attached to her suit is her will to tell others about her situation and that's why its constantly attached to her for most of the video. When its broken off and she starts floating away, you can tell she is fully isolating herself, no longer willing to talk about her problems, but is eventually dragged back to the ground by a person she can trust :> i like these kinds of things

[@MynnieMonster]

It really does feel like you’re floating away from everyone when you’re in a situation like that. My own father sexually abused me from as far back as I can remember to age 15. I started self isolating once I realized what was going on. Everything and everyone seemed so far away, and nobody knew the nightmare I was living through every day. Old habits are hard to break and after my father was put in prison four years ago I still mostly kept to myself. Instead of being scared every day, I was depressed and struggling to take care of myself. I distrust people so much I couldn’t even bring myself to open up to my therapist. I’m finally starting to have more good days than bad ones and I’ve made friends for the first time in years within the past two months. I still struggle every day and I think it’s important to talk about this because there are so many people out there who once experienced or are experiencing this horrid nightmare right now, no matter how big or small it seems, and abuse leaves deep scars that no amount of healing will ever completely vanish. I don’t know if this will reach anyone who needs it, but I hope you’re doing alright and that you’re safe. If you’re not, find someone you can trust to help you. It gets better, I promise, you just gotta keep going

[@user-wq2yp4go2o]

He's like my English teacher 😢

[@pinky_linky9779]

This is actually how I felt for a good time when that random stranger touched my behind in the tram, at first I though it was someone by accident but then i realized.. I felt so dirty… told my auntie and she understood and then took the courage to tell my ex (bf in that time) and he understood too which made me feel safe.. wish this kind of things stopped happening. To anyone who go through it, there is always someone to listen to you and help you in anyway, it’s not you’lls fault🧡✨ -Tsuki

I like how this is actually accurate instead of trying to “babietize” it while still making it understandable 💗

[@camilagrijalva4109]

infantilize is the word. But yeah.

[@glittergal4160]

Powerful picture of dissociation after SA. And her reluctance to speak out after the first reaction to her story is so real. Well done!

[@arbazvhora5980]

I remember in 6th grade my teacher (he was very old & I was only a 10 year old girl) was very creepy to me and none of the teachers ever believed me and they only belived me after he was arrested. I am so glad that they are actually talking like people

[@Anime_theatre_lover]

Wow I actually cried watching this. I knew this kid in middle school who constantly said horrible, traumatizing things to me and justified it. I was scared to tell people because I thought they wouldn’t believe me. There’s this girl that I’ve known since I was 10 who was there for me kind of like the science teacher in this video. I cried when she said “they wouldn’t believe me” bc I literally said the same thing

[@yuutamybeloved]

I'm very grateful with this, it brought me so many feelings, since I also suffered from inappropriate touching when I was 8-9 years old, also grooming; I can tell it feels exactly like that, being in a heavy suit without being able to tell anyone how you feel, soon after floating you just stop thinking and try to forget, thank you all for representing and making these situations visible.

[@mywildcatginger0812]

I had the same experience but it was with a kid, and he touched me in the playground like, how did no one realize that. I wanted to tell someone but, it felt wrong, I had a feeling like. What if he did it as an accident? When I was admitted to the counselor, he said he already said sorry but, I didn't hear one, this made me feel like, I was taking people's attention or wasting everyone's time. And once my teacher got mad at me for crying in the elevator because of that "kid". After the incident, his parents made him move schools, and my parents gave me a lecture being all like, "Why didn't you just slap him? You know what he did was wrong. Next time someone does that to you you should hit them." but, not slapping him was a great decision because it made me not get in trouble at the playground where everyone can see. And now that he moved schools, some other girls thanked me, because I thought I was the only one that was getting touched by that "boy" It made me feel proud of my decisions and so every girl in my school that was touched, and me feel more comfortable in school. ❤ Please everyone, never be scared to share your feelings with someone you feel comfortable with. If you don't feel like telling or confronting the person that touched you, you can start by speaking to a counselor or just a teacher you trust. I know it feels hard but, don't be scared, I'm sure they will try to help. Take care everyone

[@cecitfvgrivero9146]

I love how this actually says how teenagers talk and how they react to stuff like that I’m gonna go show my teenager this😊

[@RTTSau_BOSS]

The way this perfectly shows how it feels, and the emotions and affects these kinds of experiences can have on a person. The feeling of helplessness, as if you’re by yourself, alone in space. From the expressions, it shows the thoughts that went through her head, the feeling of giving up on trying to defend yourself, as if it was pointless to try. As someone who has experienced something like this this back in the day, I know how difficult it can be to talk to someone about these kinds of things. I wish more people, including myself, could’ve brought up the courage to seek out help. It really is a relief that these things are being acknowledged and talked about more nowadays :)

I was 6 when I was touched by my pe teacher..he kissed my lips,holds me Inappropriately,touch my thighs..I didn't told my mom until I was 8,I felt like I was mute..I was uncomfortable to tell one of my traumas..when I was 8 n a half I was touched by my father,he kept touching me uncomfortably,I told my mom and now I'm 10 with separated parents,I wanted to let all young and old people out there that they aren't alone.❤

To this day I can’t wear a blind fold from something 6 years ago because it floods all the bad memories. I was 8 the last time it happened, I have only told 2 people and it’s hard because I’m falling apart. You want to trust them, you don’t want to think they are doing something wrong. I never got to watch him go to prison because he committed suicide. Everyone thinks he was innocent. I want to scream and yell about how if he was innocent then why did he jump. But instead it’s safer to sit. I don’t want my family to think I don’t trust them so it’s better they don’t know

[@ItsLishaSA]

So did you tell your family??

[@insertname2642]

I’m not sure if this is right, but I think the word “groomed” can apply between even people of the same age. Whatever the word is, I experienced that. It’s hard, and sometimes I still feel obligated to keep that sorta secret, or that I’m crazy and the problem. This hit home is what I’m trying to say, it so silently crushes your heart, I’m so glad that a whole animation team gets somewhat of what I’ve gone through, and the audience it has reached :)

[@winterspirit3734]

Nobody should ever be used to something like that. I love how it shows real problems like this & there are help. Friends Family & others.

[@ColorfulCryptid]

I was raped by a teacher in 2nd grade. People think it doesn't happen or that it's rare or that you were asking for it. Spread awareness, this could be happening at your school, to your friend, to your child. Always believe victims first.

[@annaleist9983]

God if this helps anyone , there is someone on the other side that can help you. You just haven’t met them yet. I was groomed when I was 14 by a math tutor my parents hired. I didn’t understand if was grooming for years because he was a college student and I had the biggest crush on him. Im 23 now and only just started processing it AND THATS OKAY. I wasn’t safe to do that yet. My family was unsupportive and I had no one I could talk to. I got through it myself, which is never ideal but it’s what happened. But then in college I met THE BEST support person. I love them with my whole heart and they made me feel safe enough to unpack what happened to me when I was ready. It was a chance encounter. I never could’ve predicted meeting them. I left my school and bounced 3 different schools and senior year I met them at my last ditch effort to get my degree. I felt a love that was unconditional. Just by caring they made me remember who I am . I’m really wanting to tell you, please. The most important person you meet can come in your life 2 hours from now. You never know. Hold on.

[@pookiewookie1837]

This is actually really good, it really captures a person's attention and makes you feel the way the victims feeling

[@Iputthemeintoomuchofit]

I personally haven't gone through something like this but its amazing to see content like this and it inspires me to do more for people like her thank you so much

[@omnomurmum]

I geniunely love this video. It shows how abuse, of any kind, can feel so pressing in your everyday life that you sort of just become disconnected at times. It starts by isolation, whether you DID tell someone and they shut you down, or you just can't bring yourself to talk to anyone, or when somebody asks and all the red alarms go off so you opt for the easy way out, assuring them that nothing's happening. At times, everything can seem kind of tuned out until for one reason or another the panic starts to escalate as seen in the planetarium. It can feel overwhelming, and if you don't have someone there who cares who can help you through an attack and source the problem to help you as a whole, its just a never-ending cycle. At least, this is just my interpretation and connecting it back to my experience. Others might find key points in what they have gone through, be it molestation or not.

Can we take a minute to appreciate how well the representation is? I legit went through the same thing as her, I did the same as she did (talk to the abuser, in her case, her coach) and I got the EXACT same response "I have no idea what you're talking about, but it seems you're going through something. Make sure you tell someone" and when the teacher said "i believe you, it's not your fault" I started tearing up. I desperately needed to hear those words, but no one said them. I'm only 14...

[@alizbekes2617]

the part when the teacher said "i believe u" had me tearing up btw they always tell us "tell someone u trust"but what if u trust no one? or if u only trust a few people? i only trust my grandma and im still affraid she might tell stuff to my parents i dont want..and she lives far away from me and my parents dont let me have her number (i did get it but my parents dont know about it) beacuse of one stupid fight,and they dont even realize i only trust her from my family!shes the only one im ACTUALLY close with. i spend time with her rarely beacuse of my parents and the distance between our homes yet i still trust her more than my parents that i spend days with. and im too young to be thinking about this but when i grow up and have a kid or kids,no matter what,who they are or who they like i will always support them and theyre dreams,make sure they can trust me. Trust and Love. the things my parents didnt even try to give to me.

[@BigTeaMoney]

"It's not your fault" line broke me. I have been SA'd multiple times at the age of 13-14 by an older cousin and I've been down a rough road my entire life. I finally got the help that I needed at the age of 30 and that line was the start of my recovery to moving past that. My wish is that everyone can find the courage to tell someone so that they can find the help that is needed for those that have been SA'd.
