After escaping to a safe-space, the dancer is approached by the manifestation of their subconscious identity who offers comfort and protection when it can't be found anywhere else. Person received a 2014 Gold Student Academy Award from The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences in Los Angeles, CA.
