Unease is a research-based animated short film that explores the differences between Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) and Situational Anxiety, a distinction often misunderstood by the general public. While situational anxiety is a common, short-term emotional response to stress, GAD is a clinically diagnosed mental health disorder marked by persistent and excessive worry that interferes with daily life.

​

Premiering at Athens ANIMFEST in March 2025, Unease has gone on to earn recognition from seven international festivals. It was named a Best Student Director Finalist at both the New York Short Animation Festival (NYSAF) and the Indie Shorts Mag Short Film Festival. The film has received eight awards, including Best Animation Inspired by True Events at the Pulse of Animation Festival, five Awards of Merit from the Best Shorts Competition, and an Honorable Mention from the One-Reeler Short Film Competition.
