THE DISENCHANTMENT OF A YOUNG ADULT AND A WILD CHILD is my battle-cry as a first-time female filmmaker and an actress. When I graduated NYU Tisch, the only roles I could audition for cast women as victims or vixens. Not people: hyper-sexualized props. In defiance, I set out to create a film about women defined not by their looks, but by their uniqu... enesses, weaknesses, and choices told from the female gaze. THE DISENCHANTMENT -- onscreen and off-- champions this empowered female vision. We hired an army of thirty female filmmakers to tell a tale about the dark-side of one of lifes most intimate and least cinematically-explored relationships: sisterhood. Through photographer Hazels camera (literally, a female gaze), we watch as Rachel and Hazels nostalgia is shattered. As their relationship unravels, the girls unravel sexist, limiting stereotypes (of manic-pixie dream girl and cold-lawyer-bitch); and the film itself unravels around them --the cinematic elements of music and color are stripped away, stranding Rachel and Hazel on a bathroom floor, in raw reality. ~Hannah Roze An award winning filmmaker whose debut narrative feature I BELIEVE IN UNICORNS was released theatrically in 2015 after premiering at SXSW, winning the Grand Jury Prize at the Atlanta Film Festival and additional awards from Woodstock Film Festival, Nashville Film Festival, First Time Fest, Tribeca Film Institute, IFP, NYU and the Adrienne Shelly Foundation.
