Oscar-winning actress Kate Winslet is helping kids stand up for themselves because she knows what it's like to be bullied. The 40-year-old actress has admitted that bullies made fun of her appearance while growing up, reported People Magazine.

As an adult, the actress has cultivated a positive body image and made it her mission to help others work on self-confidence. (Also Read: Kate Winslet Exhausted by 'Ridiculous' Work Hours of Steve Jobs Biopic)

Daisy Chain is a story about a young girl who is bullied and through the help of a friend she learns to create a daisy chain so strong that even her bullies can't break it down.

The five minute video with hand-drawn animation was inspired by Australian writer-director Galvin Scott Davis' 9-year-old son, who came home from school and confided in his father about being picked on by a peer.

Along with the short film, Daisy Chain is also an illustrated book, an app and character figurines.
