    Fair Trade

    • 2009
    • Leslie Supnet

    A young woman experiences heavy nostalgic trauma, as she purges herself from the materiality of her past. Fair Trade is a story of one woman's quest for a psychedelic transformation in an age of overconsumption and greed. With this animation, Supnet questions the value of our memories, especially those that are the by products of commercialism and capital.

    "Fair Trade", Leslie Supnet, 2009
