The Unburdened (2025)

Directed by Arnon Z. Shorr

Drama · 13m

When a busy mother is summoned by her childhood friend to save their buried time capsule, unearthing its contents reveals more about their friendship - and heritage - than either of them expected. In following Shayna's journey, the film explores the layered subjectivity of multi-generational trauma, and the sometimes contradictory ways people cope with it.
