How individuals can escape the hijacking of their lives, offering a powerful blueprint for understanding and embracing life in the face of a growing public health crisis.
Based on real-life experiences, May Contain: Two Sides features August Maturo and Ava Kolker from Girl Meets World and is filmed by award-winning 360 cinematographer Barry Pousman. This VR film portrays the intersecting lives of Zach and Lydia at a birthday party. Zach, hyper-aware of his severe food allergies, navigates the event with heightened anxiety, while Lydia’s lack of understanding leads to a life-threatening situation, highlighting the stark dangers in social environments.
The VR format allows the viewer to step into the shoes of either character, offering a unique, dual-narrative experience. This choice-driven perspective emphasizes both the reality of living with food allergies and the consequences of unawareness. May Contain: Two Sides captures the emotional intensity of life-threatening food allergies and underscores the vital importance of awareness and empathy, ultimately allowing people to stay alive and fit in.
