Graphite On Canvas - Graduate Film 2024

Martin, a 50-year-old immigrant, is working as a janitor in an art gallery. He leads a simple life, living off of microwave meals and simple sandwiches. He is a quiet man, who prefers to keep his head down and avoid confrontation.

When asked to live model for Cass, a 30-year-old art teacher in the midst of setting up her independent night course, Martin hesitantly agrees, unknowingly consenting to strip down for a group of art students.

The experience overwhelms him with an air of confidence, giving him the ability to view his drawn form in a new light. He soon breaks free of his looping existence, discovering his worth.
