A puppet animation inspired from shadow puppetry, of an elephant, breaking free from a mere stump that seems overpowering to it.
As a young elephant, the stump was powerful enough to keep it tethered. However, as it grew bigger and stronger, that was no longer the case. The fearful past memories of being captive however kept the elephant tethered.
Breaking free is possible only if we realize and acknowledge the things that scare us and try to overcome them.
