THE STRUGGLE TO FIT IN

Have you ever felt pressure to change who you are just to fit in?
Many people experience this struggle in the workplace, at school, in social circles, and even among friends. This video explores the cost of belonging and what it takes to be accepted when identity, culture, or background quietly become conditions for inclusion.
Rituals of Belonging is a story about identity, belonging, and the feeling of being an outsider. While the novel follows immigrants navigating life in a new country, its message extends far beyond immigration. It speaks to anyone who has struggled with fitting in, acceptance, and the invisible rules that shape how we are expected to behave.
This video looks at the unspoken expectations of belonging, the exhaustion of constantly adjusting yourself, and the emotional toll of never knowing when you are “enough.” It reflects a universal human experience, the desire to belong without erasing who you are.
