| Short Synopsis: |
A revealing battle royale of vices in a cutthroat match of musical chairs. Who will conquer all?
Director Statement:
My intention for this short film when we rolled camera 8 months ago in August 2019, was to showcase powerful strong female characters of color, contextualize visually an inner battle over negative thought patterns, and give hope you can persevere and overcome them. Now releasing this in an entirely different climate in June 2020, it may take on another meaning.
I hope this too makes you feel something and sparks something inside you to keep your head high during these times. |
