director's bio

Hannah Sperling is a rising senior at NYU studying Film and TV. Growing up in Los Angeles, she fell in love with filmmaking through the chaotic, low-budget videos she made with her younger siblings. As she got older, she became increasingly aware of the pressures girls face surrounding their bodies and sexuality, an awareness that continues to shape her storytelling.​

​

She has worked at Saturday Night Live, Bleecker Street, Peacock, Maven Screen Media, NEON, and American High, throwing herself into the entertainment industry from every angle.​

Hannah recently completed a semester abroad in London, studying at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts and the National Film and Television School, where she further honed her craft. 

"When I was in middle school, I encountered a similar situation. At the time, I didn't fully grasp how wrong it was, and I let people around me act as if it were acceptable. As I matured, I understood the harm it caused. I hope this film gives girls the courage to speak up and recognize the wrong.​​​​​"
