COMMUNITY | $15 | 18+ | Faces is a short narrative film following an engaged couple seemingly living a happy life in LA on the fringes of major success in the entertainment industry. Their relationship is thrown into question when a chance encounter with a classmate leads to sexual assault accusations for the future groom.
Written, directed, and produced by Jasmine Siddall, Faces is a short drama film exploring intimate relationships, memory, accountability, the lasting impact of violence and sexual assault; the film asks what happens when the person you love is accused of something unthinkable.
