Neil is tired. Tired of college, tired of the constant reminders from home, and tired of pretending that everything is fine. A simple message from his mother becomes one more thing he has to carry alone. Follow him through a single, restless day of headphones, half-hearted shrugs, and quiet moments where his composure starts to slip. Where his day takes him is something you'll have to see for yourself. Silent Anxiety never explains what is wrong, and it doesn't have to. It's about the anxiety people carry quietly, often hidden behind indifference, and the loneliness of not having the words to say it.

WRITTEN & DIRECTED by S.SAHIL,Ahaan is surrounded by people, messages, and a world outside his window, yet he feels completely disconnected from it. As someone who cares about him keeps reaching out, Ahaan struggles with the choice between withdrawing into himself and simply showing up. WITHHELD is a minimalist short film about loneliness, emotional distance, and the quiet courage of being present.
