I INCLUDE THe SHORT FILM "the DISPENSABLE", DIR. ROBERT MORGALO, IN A SPECIAL SECTION in my site, BECAUSE IT MEAN SO MUCH TO ME FOR TWO REASONS. FIRST, IT WAS FILMED WITH GREAT EFFORT AND CARE IN THE MIDST OF THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC, AND SECOND, FOR THE AWARDS AND NOMINATIONS FROM OFFICIAL SELECTIONS THAT IT HAS RECEIVED.
I feel blessed to not only have been able to film during the Covid-19 pandemic but also to have been part of the cast of the award winning short film "The Dispensable" written and directed by Robert Morgalo and produced by Outhouse Production Films. I portrayed the Housekeeper.
A short film that confronts the disparities of classism, capitalism, equality and human worth in the era of Covid-19. As the world grapples with the new coronavirus that causes a global pandemic, the clash of economic interests and public health comes into focus.
