Project Description

Every now and then , you come across individuals who inspire and uplift you. And then, there are those rare few who literally elevate you from one level to another. You become a better version of yourself after crossing paths with them. In sociology, they're referred to as 'allies of (social) ascension.' Our new immersive film pays homage to these transformative individuals.
