Claire Norowzian has directed a new short film for Mind Food charity and Media Trust, titled 'Bud', telling the story of a young man named Joe who finds some balance in the middle of a mental health struggle, through the power of plants and gardening. Kept to himself in his bedroom and consumed by only his own company, Joe is startled by a talking plant that calls out to him and grabs his attention. Soon he is taken on a journey of discovery about the possibilities available to him in regards to addressing his mental health. The film is humorous and absurd, yet also very reassuring and calming as Joe gets to meet other individuals who are on similar journeys of introducing themselves to nature therapy.
