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.
