Stupid Shoes
Why a movie about shoes?
It all starts with a foot operation ten years ago, which sends me down an unexpected rabbit hole.
What began as a personal story about what I thought was bad luck soon became the starting point for a much larger investigation into a a silent health crisis that costs our society billions.
Armed with a camera and some nagging questions, I’ve embarked on a quest for answers.
"Stupid Shoes" is an investigative documentary, a historical journey, and a call to question the things we accept as normal.
A film that will forever change the way you look at your shoes.
