A dramedy - about a parent's denial, about not being seen, about realizing that some relationships can't be salvaged.

Design Process

This film was completely costumed on an under $150 budget, utilising some items from the actors' closets, NYU Costume Shop rentals, and purchasing small bits I couldn't source personally. It was a challenging process ensuring all five actors had every piece accounted for (full of emails and look books) and that those pieces were cared for on set. Luckily, everyone involved were such a joy to work with and exceptionally receptive to how we planned to make this film happen.
