director’s statement

The original script for Champagne Social was born out of an emotional exercise; an honest journal entry to work thru toxicity in a close relationship. These connections with each other in relationships (be it family, platonic or romantic) are both tangible but at the same time the absolute most complex algorithms that none of us can really figure out. They are misunderstood and subjective, which is why Champagne Social is both a realistic intimate interpretation in it’s raw emotion but at the same time, told thru a heightened perspective on film.

I think the story is brazenly honest and delivers a real gut punch to the audience.
