Locating itself in a world of domestic strife, the narrative unfolds from the point of view of a little boy. Stuck between the fights and arguments of his parents, the sole caregivers and adults in his life, he finds himself taking flights of fancy, closely linked to the drawings he makes, to make his present more acceptable. <br><br>

The story opens with raised voices which refuse to listen to the pleas of a mute boy. As his anxieties grow, and he moves away from the morose painting he had been coloring in with his crayons, we are introduced to a friendship he cherishes deep within his heart. In this world of his imagination, he is no longer voiceless. On the contrary, he even has a companion who not only listens to everything he has to say, but also helps him choose a brighter, more hopeful path.

<br><br>The entirety of the plot unfolds employing only shadows against a wall. Utilising limited resources, the final result comes into existence, presenting the audience with its motivations and intentions. It would be desirable to see a more firm hold on the execution of the idea in future endeavors by the team. Having said that, Light and Shades remains an honest attempt at sharing its story with you.
