“Fear” is about a small kid who goes to the doctor alone and waits for his turn in the waiting room. In his mind the other waiting patients, the receptionist and other things get so creepy that he decides to leave. The film shows how the fears we already have only get scarier in our minds the more we think about them. However, in order to overcome your fears, you cannot simply run away from them, you have to face them. This short animated film comes from a memory of myself sitting in the waiting room at a doctor’s office and getting more and more nervous as time went by.
