In a world obsessed with likes and filters, Marie’s story is a wake-up call.

In a world where likes equate to love and followers that define self-worth, twelve-year-old Marie uncovers the harsh reality behind social media's perfectly curated facade.

What begins as an innocent snapshot of her dog spirals into a whirlwind of digital obsession. Chasing online validation, Marie morphs from a bright, ambitious preteen into a shadow of her former self, her world reduced to the glow of a smartphone screen. Each post holds the promise of acceptance but delivers only the hollow echo of disconnection.

As the relentless tide of trolls and impossible expectations threatens to extinguish her spirit, Marie faces a pivotal choice: continue her descent into a curated unreality or fight to reclaim her authentic self.

The Social Media Shenanigans is a raw and unflinching exploration of modern teenage life, where every click, comment, and share comes with a hidden cost. This gripping narrative pulls back the curtain on the digital generation's battle between virtual perfection and genuine human connection.
