MAD PROJECT Episode 2 : Me Friend Mind Friend

What do humans need to survive? Food, housing, clothing, medicine, and money are the 4+1 factors that everyone might think of. But that might not be the whole answer. Humans are social animals that interact and communicate with each other. So, something called "friends" might be just as important as those 4+1 factors. If we don’t have friends to talk to, communicate with, exchange ideas, vent, and share our happiness and sadness, what will human life be like? “MAD Project Episode 2: Me Friend Mind Friend" aims to express and reflect the inner needs of a frequently overlooked group—individuals with special needs who possess creative potential. This group consists of special artists (PPD, NOS, and Down Syndrome) who want to communicate with others like everyone else. They use art as an alternative to "create friends" through their imagination and subconsciousness, conveying what they want, which might lead to understanding and good interactions with others. "MAD Project Episode 2: Me Friend Mind Friend" raises this question to exchange opinions with people in society: Is something called "friends" important to you? How?
