WATCH: Powerful Anti-Bullying Video Features Maltese Girl Who Knows The Pain All Too Well

A student of MCAST Art and Design has released a powerful video that reenacts the painful stories of a girl who was bullied while she was at school.
The filmmaker, Jonathon Brincat, wanted to highlight the plight of those who fear going to school every single day because of bullying, and help them reach out to those who could change their life.
“During [my time being bullied] I didn’t look for help as much as I should have” the girl explains “Speak up and tell them to pay attention. Sometimes people don’t realise they’re neglecting [to help].”
All girls featured in this clip are actors.
If you, or someone you know, is being bullied help is out there. Speak to someone you can trust like a parent, a teacher or a guidance councilor. There’s also online resources like the wonderful people at Kellimni, who offer confidential help and advice to young people.
