Mind the Gap is a 2D animated short film, about a boy named Luke who is travelling with public transport from the city where he studies to the city where he lives. The boy is highly sensitive to his surroundings and also extremely empathic. Every means of transport Luke takes is linked to an emotion. He uses a magical stress ball to filter these emotions. However, the moment the stress ball’s capacity has reached its limit, Luke is forced to come into contact with his more objective other half and is encouraged to tame his overly empathic monster.
