FLIP!

“Are we afraid of getting cancelled…? We eat cancellations for breakfast!”

Meet Carleen and Crystal. Two best friends with a lot to say, and a growing online following. Until their latest post sees them go too far…

The new social media platform, FLIP! offers them a second chance. Superstardom, influence, money: it’s all just a click away. FLIP! is the answer to everything they’ve ever dreamed of. But at what cost?

This sharp satire from acclaimed writer Racheal Ofori, directed by Emily Aboud asks how we can live our best authentic lives in a world of algorithms intent on proving just how disposable we all are…
