Synopsis

THE STORY: Shirin is working on a book about post-Occupy Wall Street grassroots movements and trying not to succumb to anxiety attacks.

CJ is a public defender navigating NYC’s fucked up judicial system, while trying to make time for a meaningful personal life.

Elizabeth needs to finish college and figure out what to do next.

Oh, also, there’s a mysterious bug infestation in the kitchen.

Hashtag millennials, amirite?

Putting an urgent spin on stories about “girls” in any medium, COLLECTIVE NOUN is a love letter to an unsung history of collective action and a battle cry for radically reenvisioning what it means to fight for change.

Press Reviews

"COLLECTIVE NOUN is VERY GOOD. …It’s a font of esoterica; it felt made specifically for me but I’m betting you’ll feel the same."
