Thanks to one and all. I'm pleased with how this was received. Some preferred the earlier subconscious elements, others preferred the latter - it was a good mix.
The story is about a growing awareness of a part of the mind which lies just beneath the surface that influences our actions and feelings. When Greta taps into her subconscious, she gradually becomes aware of a connection to the subconscious of all living beings, including the planet.
It's a symbolic statement about empathy and our responsibility to other beings and the Earth. I was going to call it The Awakaning but I'm aware of how some people react to 'woke' stuff so tried to avoid making that aspect front and center.
There was one comment which said the reveal at the end would be spoiled the moment we saw Greta, which is fair enough. However, I doubt you'd get Greta to play this part (she's not 15 any more for a start) so in the casting, you just get someone who looks like a 15-year old girl who isn't a dead ringer for Greta, or the ending can be changed of course.
Thanks all, it's been a pleasure as always.

That was me.
You make a fine counter!
Congrats on the win. As always... good stuff.
