Salem (short movie)

Co-direction, art direction, styling and music production for short movie Salem.

Salem focuses on ‘Tallulah’, a young woman caught up in sexual slavery. Controlled by her pimp and the abuses of her customers, she chooses not to play victim, but empowers herself in the midst of oppression. It’s a piece that attacks the mindset of sexual objectification, exposing the brokenness at its core and revealing instead the beauty we discover as we choose to see ourselves for who we truly are.
