“For You, For Life” seeks to capture the depth of emotions such as isolation, frustration, and stark loneliness, profoundly felt by those who are struggling. The protagonist is initially engulfed in darkness, swallowed up by the vastness of the world around him. Right as he reaches the peak, a voice reaches out and breaks through like a light in complete darkness.

This film was created with one agenda, to humanise SOS as a friend who cares, and that they are more than just an organisation. The heart-wrenching 2 minutes short-film has been featured on Campaign Asia, Marketing Interactive, Ads Of The World, & more.
