Wear Who You Are, will be a psychological short film exposing how self-expression can have a dark side when it gets mixed in with idolization.

Ivy, who is quiet and overlooked by her friends has always had an intense desire to be seen. When she meets the new girl, Robyn, who seems to have it all, effortlessly stylish and constantly surrounded by people admiring her, Ivy slips into a toxic loop of idolization turned into obsession. As Ivy buys mountains of clothes and desperately copies Robyn's entire persona just to be seen, she spirals into complete Self-destruction, Forcing both girls to face what they have been hiding from, Reality…

Ultimately the film explores how chasing an image that isn't yours, with such intensity and obsession, can be so toxic it starts to destroy who you really are.
