Mental health, especially in 2020, has become a topic demanding urgent attention. The short film is an endeavour to further the same conversation. By portraying the emotional isolation and the consequent mental strain it puts the protagonist under, the narrative asserts its point.

Along with presenting the problem, there is also the attempt to offer a solution. Solicitude reminds the viewer to check in on their friends and loved ones from time to time, to ensure loneliness or any other emotion of the kind does not acquire overwhelming proportions for them.

The film is concise and endeavours to employ brevity to set the premise, establish the crisis of the protagonist and finally conclude with a solution to avoid or fix the situation at hand, all of this being realised simply under two minutes.
