All the things she never said
2024 (Independent Nonfiction, Investigative)
All The Things She Never Said is a three part documentary that forensically examines the concept and career of t.A.T.u and the notorious song and music video that anchors the controversy surrounding the group: “All The Things She Said”. The story of t.A.T.u’s cultural impact is ripe with mind melting revelations and 2000s nostalgia, but beyond the surface is so much more; the story of t.A.T.u is a geographically-charged-cultural-sapphic-seance on the lesbian identity, porn-as-entertainment, the post-Soviet identity, Putin’s warmongering regime, the male gaze, and the exploitation of workers rights in music that plagues the industry not only in the time of t.A.T.u, but still today in 2024.
