Ananke is a 25 min short film, which artistically depicts addiction through metaphorical personification as a mysterious lover and friend, Ananke. The relationship that the protagonist, Juliana, builds with Ananke mirrors the abusive relationship that one can have with substance abuse, where the euphoria is so dazzling it replaces ambition and independence. In the short film, we explore how one, who suffers from a lack of support and loneliness, can give away everything to feel wholesome. This film’s main objective is to draw attention to rising levels of addiction in LGBTQ+ communities. We hope this issue will be more visible to everyone and more resources will be directed to dealing with this devastating problem.
