About the work
Alex is eleven years old. During a lighthearted afternoon after school, something begins to change, a shift they can’t name but will never forget. Small moments with their mother and older sibling reveal both tenderness and tension, hinting at the growing gap between who Alex feels they are and how others perceive them. What remains invisible to everyone feels like an earthquake within them. As the hours pass, the weight of this unspoken transformation deepens, marking a turning point in their young life. Mercury is a gentle and intimate portrait of adolescence. A story about identity, the bonds of family, and the hidden milestones that quietly shape who we become.
