Throwaway Living (Plastic Kills! Runner-up)

A housewife trapped in a 1950s ad campaign becomes the unwitting messenger for a world consumed by plastic.

"Throwaway Living" is a runner-up of Plastic Pollution Coalition and Hollywood, Health and Society's short horror film contest Plastic Kills! which highlights the horrors of single-use plastics.

ABOUT THE FILMMAKERS

Laura Malatos
Writer & Director

Helen Sun
Writer & Producer
Laura Malatos (she/her) & Helen Sun (she/her) are a writing-filmmaking duo with an appetite for overly ambitious characters and darkly comedic worlds. Despite being born 5,000 miles apart (in Seattle and literal Moscow, Russia), they came together at USC and have been ride-or-die roommates ever since. Alongside writing, they collaborate on social media ads, music videos, and narrative films – jobs that have brought them unhinged experiences, from transforming their apartment into an underground bunker to staging medieval fights in the California mountains. They are excited to keep exploring heightened worlds in their work and bring complex queer and female-driven narratives to the screen whilst having a laugh.
