Above Under

Film for LA Fashion Festival

Above Under is the suspenseful story of facing your own actions in the industrialized capitalist system of the fashion industry. The film documents the journey of one individual, oblivious to her own role in the degradation of the environment, confronting the waste and bondage of industrialization. Horrified by the trauma of detritus, she understands the role she plays in this cycle of wasteful fashion and frees herself from the captivity of inaction. 

The film was shot for Los Angles Fashion Festival (LAFF), an important event in the LA fashion world that showcasing progressive ideas via an immersive cultural experience of film, retail, innovation, and beauty influences. LAFF 2019 program’s theme was “The Futrue is Inclusive”, with a focus on sustainability and community.

The film was delivered during the festival, with a full length director’s cut and three ad spots.
