Elevate: Directed by Angela Matemotja. With Brianna Brown, Alexis Carra, Kit Williamson, Ben Jurand. ELEVATE delivers a drama of intertwining stories about people who must fight to overcome their struggles with homophobia, food addiction and racism. The film follows the story of Trina, an overweight elevator switchboard operator who desperately tries to accomplish just one day of healthy eating. Overwhelmed by her abusive boss and by the trapped elevator occupants that reach out to her for help, her fitness guru provides the inspiration and escape that she craves – or does she? Ultimately, all of the occupants in this trapped world find themselves caught face-to-face with their inner demons.

“I was really impressed with how this film was told, the unfolding stories, the relationships of the people, and how Angela dealt with food addiction. As an indie filmmaker, itu0026#39;s difficult to make interesting movies that are compelling on very small budgets and this is an incredible story told within those constraints! Very clever!”
