Story
Mission Statement
The Pink satirizes white capitalist feminism, ageism, toxic positivity all wrapped up in a comedic, female gaze package. It’s a film about the stuff we actually care about. It asks, how has the fight for equality become marketed and packaged into something so ugly? Even when it looks so damn pretty!About The Project

Is it better to belong to a community, or lose yourself? You can’t have both.
It’s Riley’s first time at the feminist utopia, members-only, co-working space “The Pink” – and everything is a little too perfect. Why do all the women look the same if this "community" encourages uniqueness and true female empowerment? When Riley figures out what's really going on behind the Pepto Bismol veneer, it might be too late.
THE PINK is DEATH BECOMES HER set in a Goop world. It’s “Get Out” with a palette of “The Stepford Wives” for a millennial “the future is female” audience. It pokes at white capitalist feminism, ageism in a horror, female gaze package. Oh, and there's period stuff.

About the Film Makers
Writer/Director, Ingrid Haas leaned into personal experience as a jumping off point, The Pink, though a genre film, is deeply personal as it is based on experiences of feeling ostracized and not good enough for the cool girls.
To make this film, Ingrid brought on a team of women, who like her, were interested in telling stories that don’t have simple answers, the grey area, the tales that aren’t black or white, right or wrong.

Meeting Our Goal
