Rouge pushes us into the horrific depths of a cosmetic factory as it manufactures the facade of commercialized beauty. Through the use of miniatures and mixed media techniques, this film voyeuristically plays with the audience’s perspective to showcase the beauty industry’s exploitation of humanity and the environment.
