This series shows a process from resignation to some kind of break free moment.
The female protagonist is shown in a levitating ring which is meant to be her imaginary comfort zone. Thos comfort zone isn't about feeling comfortable around other people or in new situations, but simply about self love and acceptance in times of lockdowns, loneliness and self doubt.
With the protagonist hiding her face in fear, touching her head in desperation and sitting there - with her back to us - wondering about her place in her own world, we finally get to see a small glimpse, a very moment of breaking out with her face first time oriented directly to the camera. There are still boundaries, her vision is still affected due to remaining insecurities, but she is pushing forward, screaming, trying to finally be free (again).
