The world that we live in has many social issues, however, most people in our specify prefer to ignore these social issues instead of taking action. My video is in black in white to display that the subjects in the video do not have a clear perspective on the things that are going on around them. Many of the participants are drinking to emphasize how people in society have a lack of care of the things that are going on around them. The speech throughout the video is slurred and incoherent to represent how information about social issues is typically not processed or understood by those who hear it. There are major issues in the background of each shot while the subjects continue to live their lives unphrased by the things that are going on around them. The video ends with the subjects' perspective shifting from black and white to in color. The social issues are no longer in the background. The subjects are faced with dealing with the problems that are going on in our society and their reaction is to run away from the problems instead of taking action.
