ELEVATOR explores a deconstructive critique of the elevator pitch, a capitalist ritual where a concise business proposal is delivered within a 2-minute elevator ride to a captive listener.
ELEVATOR explores tech start-up culture for its underlying inequities and embodiment of capitalist extremes, revealing how “the pitch” promotes the morphing of personhood and product, pushing the viewer to question the ethics of creation.
