Soft Tissue challenges conventional storytelling by placing stuffed plush teddy bears into symbolic medical settings: filmed in live-action, composited into digital environments, and accompanied by artistic overlays of brain imaging. The bears are inanimate, evoking the emotional paralysis of pediatric patients within clinical systems. The film blends healthcare ethics with visual metaphor to explore who receives care and who is left unseen by healthcare staff.
