Saborrrr!

2023 · 15 min

A tight, uncomfortable backstage drama that quietly builds pressure as a performer is slowly boxed in by other people's expectations.

Overview
On the first day shooting a popular Tex-Mex food commercial, a Puerto Rican actress strives to meet the demands of culturally demeaning creators for her first big role. The more the stereotypes converge on her beliefs, the more she feels trapped in a character she’s unsure she can escape.
