“An Untold Story” isn’t just about a young man’s steadfast plea – for people to listen to what he has to say. It is also about his desperate attempt to trace back the real meaning and worth of his life. His sheltered existence and his father’s insane obsession to gain power forced him to run away. Soon, he sees and values life, in a way he never imagined. In the end, because of what he had been through, he accepts the true source of power and dignity: equality, freedom of expression, and peace and unity.
It is an experimental short narrative that fused fiction with facts. It inventively used symbols and metaphors to create gripping layers of meanings and interpretations. In a way, it pays homage to the nameless men and women who vowed and died championing human rights and whose heroic struggles and empowering stories might have been untold, or, worse, forgotten.
