“On The Subject Of Depression” is a one-minute short film by artist/animator Scott Benson. Depending on which statistics you’re observing, depression effects between 5 to 10 percent of the world’s population, and it’s a major factor leading to countless suicides. It’s not a pleasant topic, but it’s obviously a social issue of large importance. Benson has opened up about his own experiences with the disorder in this new short film, stating that he made the film “hoping it would be cathartic for me and maybe a bit comforting for others who might have similar issues.”

This piece includes colorful illustrations, as well as the short film.
