THE MOVEMENT
OR DIE TRYING is a testament to the countless women in film. We, the creators, are active women in the film industry not just on screen + in the series, but in our real lives. We don’t “ask for permission,” we fight for our dreams daily. The countless struggles we have faced as millennials in Hollywood have inspired us to create a story that is raw, real, and relatable for the young women who come out to California with a dream of making it in LA. This one is for the artists, the fighters, and the dreamers.
OR DIE TRYING, like its creators, is comprised of creative females living and working in Los Angeles, in varying aspects of the entertainment industry.
OR DIE TRYING represents all of the resilient women who are judged not only by their talent, but also by their age, race, gender, “look,” and social following. We represent every girl who has moved to Los Angeles with her car stuffed to the brim with hope & courage. We represent the women who make connections to create & collaborate, and who hope to build something bigger than themselves. We represent the women who work three jobs to barely make rent, but are just happy and grateful to be in the center of creativity here in Hollywood. We represent the women with a story that they are burning to tell.
We are these women, or we die trying.
