Director/writer Sarah Gertrude Shapiro was inspired by her real life experiences in the reality TV world to craft a short fiction film, with superb psychological performances, and a timely message about female social hierarchy and the role of the media in creating it.
ENTER Squin Raze, a film that will make its world premier at SXSW Film Festival this month.
