The Story
On a weekend away in a nondescript town, all eleven-year-old Julia wants to do is swim in a hotel pool. All her aunt wants to do is finally relax. And all her mother wants to do is think about anything other than her ex. But their plans are disrupted when a handsome musician asks them to dinner. What follows is an evening of old habits, micro-aggressions, and missed opportunities. Someone is embarrassed, someone is abandoned, and everyone, but especially Julia, is left wondering: what exactly went wrong?
Inspiration
A message from our writer, Brooke:
This film is rooted in memory, based on an experience that I had as a young girl 'Up North' in Petoskey, Michigan. I’d forgotten about it until after the death of my mother and my subsequent reunion with her younger sister. As a child, I’d heard this story retold as an example of my precociousness. But as an adult, I saw it quite differently. To me now, the story is insidious and emblematic as to how I was taught to think about gender and money. Moreover, I had never before seen the story through my aunt’s point of view. Once I did that, it was impossible to ignore the power dynamic between the two women and the girl watching them -- and learning. In my mother's playbook, pretty women don't pay for themselves. In my playbook, those are sobering -- and dangerous-- ideas to feed our daughters.
I have long been obsessed with the films Hideous Kinky and Entre Nous which employ a similar trick in point-of-view. Both stories are told – very subtly and skillfully -- through the lens of young, invisible-ish daughters. We focus on the charismatic mother. But later, we feel the complex web of emotion and ambivalence through the gaze of her offspring. How do young women hold, internalize, and catalogue the experience of our mothers, who essentially shape our world view?
At a time when so many things are changing, it is imperative to catch these messages, to correct course and teach our children self-respect.
Development and Vision
A note from our director, Jennifer:
As a director and a mother of a young child, I first felt drawn to Brooke's script as it very honestly depicts the everyday ways we abandon our children when caught in fixed patterns of behavior in our adult relationships. The script doesn't demonize or shame the characters, but rather bares their flaws and limitations in a very human way.
Pretty Doesn't Hurt is about gender dynamics and money. It’s also about how race is inextricably tied up with both when everyone at the table isn’t white.
As we workshopped the script during this year of global reckoning around racism, we deeply investigated the very layered interaction between the adult characters and continue to do so as we move toward production.
I envision an intimate relationship between the camera and the actors, with close up shots to draw the audience in. With this style of filmmaking, we can live through the moments with Julia, Mindy, Jenna, and Steve, by getting close to the actors and staying with them.
I want the audience to feel that they really shouldn't be watching certain moments unfold, but that they can't look away. Stories that reveal ourselves to ourselves are stories worth telling.
Short films allow filmmakers to produce cinema quality films that tell stories a feature length doesn’t serve. Pretty Doesn’t Hurt is a perfect example of this - an eye-opening snapshot of one evening in a young girl’s life. We intend to reach as wide an audience possible with the film by maximizing the opportunities provided by film festivals and streaming on various platforms.
Our team intended to launch this fundraising campaign in March of 2020. We had just begun our prep - scouting locations, discussing tone, look and feel of the visual story and overnight it became clear to us that the world was going to take a major shift. We made the incredibly difficult decision of putting the production on hold. Within days, schools closed, friends, loved ones and members of our own team were laid off or furloughed, sick or afraid to get sick -- and we knew we had made the right decision. In the months following, we engaged in conversations about the inequities in our industry and have committed to a work environment for our production that ensures collective collaboration.
Late Summer and Fall of 2020 saw a return to production for the major Film and Television studios. Independent filmmakers have had a harder time getting back to work. This is mostly due to money. Covid safety increases budgets by 10-30 percent and that is a daunting number when you’re already stretching every dollar and favor available while juggling family, money gigs and side hustles. Many, including us, have waited, watched and listened. Through research and staying in conversation with our filmmaking community, we are now prepared to produce this film on a SAG-AFTRA contract, following all of the protocols for a Covid safe set as outlined in the document “The Safe Way Forward”.
Thank You
When you join us and support our film however you can, you are backing a diverse team of artists who are ready to return to set.
The money raised will pay the salaries of our crew and transport them to and from set safely, allow us to rent out a restaurant location for 1 day of our shoot (both vitally important after months of unemployment/shutdowns due to Covid-19), enhance our production design, enable us to rent cinema quality camera equipment, and provide healthy meals for our cast and crew each day on set. Should Covid restictions delay our October 2021 shoot, all funds will remain in our production account and we will resume work as soon as it is safe to do so.
Liking and following us on Seed&Spark helps to unlock all sorts of amazing incentives and promoting our project on your social media helps build our audience. Both of these contibutions will go a long way for this production.
We cannot WAIT to get to work, and we invite you to help us tell this story the best way we can.
We are so grateful for you! Please stay tuned for updates to our film and fundraising endeavor!
Love,
Brooke, Keeley, David, Andy, Jenny, Jenna, & Jennifer
