Short Film “Hungry” Continues to Capture Hearts and Awards

LifeDesign Director Linda Notelovitz and Hooligan Editor Peter Mostert reunited to create “Hungry,” a short film that addresses the glaring issue of poverty and homelessness in South Africa.

The film centers around a South African woman named Cynthia, who has lived with homelessness and addiction from the age of 14. The idea was to transform Cynthia into a fashion model and explore what her outer transformation would represent.

Mostert used a mixture of stills and moving footage to create a rhythm reminiscent of a fashion shoot, freezing on poses and moments that captured Cynthia’s essence.

“Hungry” was recently awarded a Bronze Cresta Award in the Viral Video category. Congrats to everyone involved in this moving and beautifully crafted project!
