 #justmove 

Director: Lue McWilliams 

Synopsis: Self-imposed limits on what we can and can’t do. This short highlights in a simple fun way how society and ourselves can dictate our potential and it will hopefully motivate people to think outside the gender and age societal boxes; in this film, I use movement as an example, but the formula can be applied to anything: education, fashion, business…etc
